      Year 2 is the beginning of their chronological history studies which will be continued throughout primary school. More in-depth history studies will be covered again in the high school years.

      We use History Makers – Early Civilisations once per week. It includes short chapters for read aloud lessons and oral narration.

      After their history read aloud children make a timeline folder with  Ancient Civilisations Timeline Figures that match the period of history they have just studied. Our history timelines continue throughout Year 3 and 4.

      Bible History Makers: This is a brief overview of people and events that appear in ancient history and the Bible. It includes selected stories to read directly from the Bible, and then some additional Bible archaeology and history. Timeline figures are also included to add to your ancient history timeline.
