History: Progression of vocabulary

This document has been updated for 24/25. Any feedback on this new version would be appreciated  ([email protected]).

This document shows when vocabulary is introduced in our History scheme of work.

This document shows key vocabulary across the Disciplinary concepts, Historical enquiry, Substantive concepts and Chronological awareness strands. Please note that children do not need to retain vocabulary related to Topic knowledge  (e.g. words like ‘sarcophagus’ and ‘aqueduct’) so it is not shown on this document which aims to show a progression of vocabulary related to the disciplinary and substantive aspects of the subject.

 

Geography: Vocabulary progression

This document shows how pupils’ understanding of vocabulary builds when following the Geography scheme of work. The vocabulary is shown by strand to make it easier to see progression in Geographical skills and Fieldwork, Human and Physical geography and Locational knowledge.

Our Place knowledge strand involves understanding similarities and differences between places. Therefore, it doesn’t have its own associated vocabulary; rather, pupils’ understanding of ‘place’ will involve an awareness of much of the vocabulary used in other strands.

We have separated human and physical geography to make progression clearer, however it is important to be aware that the human and physical are interconnected and some terms could arguably be described as human and physical geography terms.
