Hi, Cas is back!
Today was mainly maths and spelling. The only non-daily lesson was history. In it we watched How We Used To Live episode 4 series 1 Hospital Case. I was asked to research a main thing in the episode. I chose Anderson and Morrison shelters. I will write my findings here:
The Anderson shelter was designed in 1938 and could fit 6 people in it. They measured 1.4 metres wide, 2 metres long and 1.4 metres tall. They were £7. It was named after Sir John Anderson, who prepared Britain for the air raids. The shelter goes in the garden.
The Morrison shelter was £7 as well went inside the house. It could not survive a direct bomb hit but could help with affects. It was designed to be slept in and used as a table
See ya tomorrow!
Hi Caspian – could you try making a model of an Anderson or Morrison shelter?
Try to get as much detail into your model as you can. Perhaps veg growing on the roof of your Anderson shelter or blankets and pillows inside your Morrison shelter?!

Great research Caspian! Keep up the excellent work.
Great facts about Anderson and Morrison shelters Caspian.
Those are really interesting facts Caspian, thanks for sharing. I would love to see pictures of your model if you decide to make one. 🙂
