The key to keeping children engaged and interested is to show them how their learning is relevant today. Our ‘History in the News’ section supports you in creating cross-curricular learning experiences from a variety of age-appropriate news stories.
With videos, poetry, printable resources and music to name a few, Espresso has a plethora of interactive resources to really immerse children in history! From the ‘Jolly Sailor’s Hornpipe’ to a whistling firework, we’re bringing the real-world into the classroom.
History can be a bit of a minefield, but Espresso has carefully curated a ‘Teacher area’ for each topic. From objectives and assessments to writing opportunities and key vocabulary, they’re here to help you use resources in the most effective and engaging way for you and your class.
