Current Learning
Welcome back to a new term! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas holiday and are looking forward to returning to school.
Our new topic this term is . . .
SCHOOL DAYS
In the School Days project, your child will have the opportunity to take part in a traditional Victorian class and will learn about the differences between schooling in the Victorian era and schooling today. They will learn about objects found in a Victorian classroom and how they were used. They will research Samuel Wilderspin, an important figure in the development of schooling for young children in the Victorian era, whose ideals are reflected in schooling today. They will learn to describe the passage of time through study of past, present and future tense vocabulary. Get ready to head back in time to the days of school bells, blackboards and the dreaded Dunce's hat! Let's go!
