Chronology Step 5: Learners are beginning to fit chronological knowledge into a simple structure of historical understanding (e.g. ‘I know that 1536 was in the sixteenth century during the reign of Henry VIII’). Learners can use their understanding of chronological terms to construct timelines over short and long periods of history. Chronology Step 6: Learners are increasingly confident in placing a new period or topic within their own chronological reference and are beginning to make links between periods that they have studied. Learners' timelines and other work show an appreciation of the different scales of time and how they fit together. Interpretations Step 5: Learners have a basic understanding that different interpretations (e.g. films, paintings, songs) are made to provide groups of people with a story about the past. Interpretations Step 6: Learners can select and describe the key features of a variety of interpretations (e.g. visual, written, spoken) and explain the reasons for their construction (e.g. to entertain, to inform, to persuade).
