Year 7 History – Funky Facts!!! – Chronology
Chronology is the study of time. Events are organised in chronological order. Our system is based upon the birth of Jesus. We use BC after dates before his birth. This means Before Christ. The numbers go down. (‘BC down’) We use AD after dates that happen after his birth. This means Anno Domini – In the year of our Lord. The numbers go up. (‘AD up’)

Year 8 – Funky Facts!!! – Ealy Modern England
In 1485, Henry Tudor defeated Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth. He became Henry VII, the first Tudor monarch. Henry married Elizabeth of York. Henry VII’s eldest son was called Arthur. Arthur married Catherine of Aragon, but died 5 months later. This meant that Henry’s second eldest son became King when he died. He was also called Henry and was known as Henry VIII.

In 1901, Queen Victoria died. She has been queen for over 63 years. Her eldest son, Albert (‘Bertie’) became King. He chose to be called Edward VII. This was his middle name.
