During literacy (and our topic subjects) the children have travelled back in time and found themselves on the grim, cobbled streets of the City of London. It is September 1666 and a Great Fire is raging.
In this fully immersive experience they have been joined by Vlad and Boxton to hear their version of the historical event as they fled the conflagration.
Using role- play, story writing, hot seating and their new geographical knowledge they have become quite the experts!
Ask your children the following questions; prepare to be astounded . . .
What is a diary?
Who are Vlad and Boxton?
What is our capital city?
Who was Thomas Farriner?
Why did the fire spread so quickly?
