Flintstones to Starwars is a transport theme or inquiry unit that can lend itself to a wide range of inter-connected activities and makes for a great rich topic. As pupils examine, contrast and investigate, they can think through their responses to transport inventions, needs and purposes throughout history and launch from there into future thinking.
