Tell the story of Wales over the last 1000 years, as you discover
how Welsh history, cynefin, culture and language are connected,
from the past to the present. Underpinned by the four purposes of
the new Curriculum for Wales, this book empowers pupils with the
knowledge and skills that they need for learning, life and work.
> Design a curriculum that is unique to your school. Use the
content flexibly to craft a historical education that reflects your
pupils and your local area, as well as covering 'What matters'
statements within the Humanities AoLE. > Follow an enquiry-based
approach. Starting in early medieval times, this book establishes a
strong chronological spine, with later enquiries looking at changes
in Wales thematically. > Develop analytical and evaluative
skills. A wide range of sources and interpretations encourage
pupils to think like historians, using evidence to consider change
and continuity, cause and consequence. > Put progression at the
heart of the curriculum. End-of-topic Activities build towards more
in-depth end-of-enquiry Review and Research tasks. All activities
and tasks enable each pupil to move through their individual
learning journey towards their next 'Progression step'. >
Explore the rich history of Wales and the global context.
Understanding events and issues in Wales and the wider world - and
