To kick off the new topic, Time Travel, Year 3 enjoyed a trip visiting two museums in Hull – The Streetlife Museum of Transport as well as Hull and East Riding Museum.
The day started with the Streetlife Transport Museum. In the museum, there were transport artefacts dating back over 200 years old. The class were interested in the carriages that people used to drive before cars were revolutionised into what we are used to today. Have a look at the pictures below!
The class loved walking down the 1940’s high street. They thoroughly enjoyed going inside the traditional pharmacy and cooperative supermarket. They even managed to spot some products which are still on sale now.
There was a lot of interest with in the 1950’s ice-cream truck. Look at one of our brilliant drawings below.
After lunch, the Year 3s went on to the Hull and East Riding museum where we walked through an Iron Age village, entered a Roman bath house and looked at the stunning mosaics. Have a look at the pictures below.
My favourite part was…
- Billy stated: “I loved seeing the woolly mammoth.”
- Edris added: “Imagine if we were in the museum and the woolly mammoth came back to life!”
- Sasha pointed out: “The cave man’s clothes have come from a sheep – he would’ve made it himself!”
- James commented: “I loved the ride that showed us what it would have felt like to be pulled in a carriage by a horse.”
- Tanvi said: “I loved all of it!”
