Why are castles and the British Monarchy important to British history?
We have loved our history topic! So far we have learnt about the term monarchy, who our monarch is and we wrote a fact file about him. We thought about what we would do if we were king and queen and designed and made our own crowns. Today we compared Queen Elizabeth I and Queen Victoria to see what was similar and different. Tween the Queens. We also learnt about key changes to History during their reign.
Exploring the castle. We’ve learnt so many new terms related to castles but so many interesting facts and stories about Carlisle Castle 🏰
We got into character today to help us imagine what life was really like in a castle.
We’ve had a lovely walk around the castle walls after our lunch.
