I'm writing a scene in a MG fantasy about a trickster on the loose in a small town in modern-day England.
In this scene, the trickster is working mischief in the school the MC attends. One of its acts is to slip into a history class and start making loud and exaggerated snoring noises while the history teacher is talking (which, needless to say, does not amuse her).
I wanted to include a specific about what particular aspect of history she was lecturing on when the trickster creates its disruption. The MC and her classmates are eleven years old, and the class is taking place just after the Christmas/winter holidays have ended. What area of history would they be most likely to be covering?
