In the Spring Term we will be learning about ‘Leeds during the Victorian Period’.
This term the children will be learning about Leeds during the Victorian Period. They will compare and contrast the use of the buildings within the city with how these localities and landmarks are used today using interactive maps and local information web sites. They will compare the lifestyles of the rich with the poor during this period and investigate the punishments handed out to those who committed crimes during this time.
As well as learning about the Geography of Leeds during this period, the pupils will also carry out research and observations in order to gain an understanding of Victorian inventions as well as learning about famous Victorians and how these people and objects have impacted our daily lives. The pupils will also experience a trip to Armley Mills, which will support their understanding of the education system during the Victorian period.
