What a great day we’ve had! Year 2 learned a lot about the past by being transported back to Victorian Leeds. At Abbey House Museum, the children found out how people lived over 100 years ago and explored different toys as part of our current history learning.
I liked it when Jill showed us all the toys from the past.
I liked to play with the yoyo but it was hard to do it.
I liked the pharmacy because all the potions looked interesting but they don’t look like the medicines we have now.
The old toilets in the street are very different to what we have now.
We learnt that people didn’t have electricity for their toys and games.
Help at home by discussing how life was different in the past. Ask your child what they remember from our trip to Abbey House Museum ready for their recount writing.
