Year 4 have been learning how to write biographies by exploring the lives of two powerful women from history: Boudicca, the fierce Celtic warrior queen, and Queen Victoria, one of Britain’s longest-reigning monarchs.
In our Roman topic, we learnt all about Boudicca, her battle against the Romans, and her role in British history. The children loved discovering what made her such a memorable leader and how her bravery is still remembered today. From there, we moved on to Queen Victoria, looking at her early life, her reign, and the many changes Britain went through during the Victorian era.
To help us with our writing, we created a Biography Toolkit together
It was a brilliant opportunity for the children to practice writing and critical thinking—all while learning about two very different but equally interesting people from history. We’re so proud of their thoughtful, well-structured biographies!
