Year 5Year 6

Milestones 1 Milestones 2 Milestones 3Chronological understanding

Sequence events in their life Sequence 3 or 4 artefacts from distinctly

different periods of time Match objects to people of different ages Sequence artefacts closer together in time -

check with reference book Sequence photographs etc. from different

periods of their life Describe memories of key events in lives Place events and artefacts in order on a

timeline. Label timelines with words or phrases such as:

past, present, older and newer. Use dates where appropriate. Recount changes that have occurred in their

own lives.

Place the time studied on a timeline Use dates and terms related to the study unit and

passing of time Sequence several events or artefacts Place events from period studied on time line Use terms related to the period and begin to date

events Understand more complex terms e.g. BC/AD Place events, artefacts and historical figures on a

timeline using dates. Understand the concept of change over time,

representing this, along with evidence, on a timeline. Use dates and terms to describe events.

Know and sequence key events of time studied Use relevant terms and period labels Make comparisons between different times in the past Place current study on time line in relation to other studies Use relevant dates and terms Sequence up to 10 events on a time line Describe the main changes in a period of history (using terms such as: social, religious, political, technological and cultural). Identify periods of rapid change in history and contrast them

with times of relatively little change. Understand the concepts of continuity and change over time,

representing them, along with evidence, on a timeline. Use dates and terms accurately in describing events.

standard in order to communicate information about the past.

Examine causes and results of great events and the impact on people

Compare life in early and late 'times' studied Compare an aspect of lie with the same aspect in another

period Find out about beliefs, behaviour and characteristics of

people, recognising that not everyone shares the same views and feelings

Compare beliefs and behaviour with another time studied Write another explanation of a past event in terms of cause

and effect using evidence to support and illustrate their explanation

Know key dates, characters and events of time studied Use appropriate historical vocabulary to communicate,

including: dates, time period, era, chronology, continuity, change, century, decade, legacy.

Use literacy, numeracy and computing skills to an exceptional standard in order to communicateinformation about the past.

Use original ways to present information and ideas.Interpretation of history

Use stories to encourage children to distinguish between fact and fiction

Identify and give reasons for different ways in which the past is represented

Compare accounts of events from different sources – fact or fiction

Select and record information relevant to the study Begin to use the library and internet for research Use evidence to build up a picture of a past event Choose relevant material to present a picture of one

aspect of life in time past Ask a variety of questions Use the library and internet for research Use evidence to ask questions and find answers to

questions about the past. Suggest suitable sources of evidence for historical

enquiries. Use more than one source of evidence for historical

Describe different accounts of a historical event, explaining some of the reasons why the accounts maydiffer.

Suggest causes and consequences of some of the main events and changes in history.

Begin to identify primary and secondary sources Use evidence to build up a picture of a past event Select relevant sections of information Use the library and internet for research with increasing

confidence Recognise primary and secondary sources Use a range of sources to find out about an aspect of time

past Suggest omissions and the means of finding out Bring knowledge gathered from several sources together in a

fluent account Use sources of evidence to deduce information about the past. Select suitable sources of evidence, giving reasons for

choices. Use sources of information to form testable hypotheses

about the past. Seek out and analyse a wide range of evidence in order to

justify claims about the past. Show an awareness of the concept of propaganda and how
