life in the coal mine by Anneliese

I can see coal ,smoke,rocks and dirt on peoples hands and faces you can see people sweating.

I can hear echoes,shouting,rocks tumbling and coal dropping and banging.

I can smell coal the rotting food and smoke in the air.

I can taste the dust and smoke in the air and the  rotting food that you eat.

I can feel sharp rocks bumpy coal and the dirt on your hands.

life in the coal mine by tasnim and sevi

I can see lots of digging  in the coal mine and people  tripping over because of the rocks.  I can hear loud noises in my ears and deafening machines.I can feel stones on my hands and splinters. I can smell coal smoke metal and copper and wet or burning wood.  I can taste the disgusting food and mouldy pie.

Life as a chimney sweep

I can hear… scratching noises in the chimneys, mice or rats squeaking and fire crackling.

I can smell… smoke, coal  from fire and wet wood.

I can see…  cobwebs and spiders, black darkness and black smoke.

I can feel…bricks scraping me,  the heat from the fire and dust in the air.

I can taste soot from the coal, burning and ash.

I can see loose bricks.

I can feel hot bricks on my skin.

I can feel dusty surfaces.

I can hear the bricks on my brush.

I can hear a crackling fire.

i can taste bad food.

i can taste the smoke.

I can smell  the things the people were bringing to make the fire.

I can smell the dust.

Life in Victorian Factories

I can see… Children  getting stuck under machines, people getting whipped or beaten and Jute being crunched.

I can hear…People coughing and sneezing from a disease, my bosses shouts ringing in my ears and children and adults throwing up after eating a horrible lunch.

I can smell…The horrible , mouldy pie, machines burning, rotting cloth and materials and stinky food.

I can taste…Very bad food, dirty air from smoke that comes from broken machines and sweat.

I can feel…Scratchy string when you weave it into rope, baskets, carpets, and rugs, dirty machines, wood and fabric and cold walls.

Life as a Chimney Sweeper (Tanith)

I can see… Cobwebs and spiders, lots of fire and so much soot.
I can smell… Lots and lots of smoke,I hate having to smell all these horrible things.
I can hear… Ash  burning loudly, I hear people chatting quietly in the houses.
I can taste… The horrible dust and smoke, so so much dirty air.

I can feel… The fire sometimes when it hits you its so so sore, all the soot gets onto me and it feels terrible,I feel so trapped.

Life at a Victorian coal mine By Sam

I can see pitch black, people digging and digging.

I can hear my boss shouting at me and rocks falling and smashing my pic axe.

I can taste ash, dust, dry mouth and  a bit of sweat.

I can feel splinters, burning fire and smooth coal.

I can smell metal, copper and also wet wood.

Days as a Victorian kid chimney sweep

I can see… smoke and dust and a lot of birds  all the time.

I can see.. dust, dead birds and  burnt  wood.

I can hear…  people talking on the streets, little mice and rats squeaking.

I can touch… a metal chimney sweep and bumpy brown bricks.

I can taste…. black dust and very bad food at lunch.

I can smell… Dead animals on the roof, smoke that makes me cough and rotten food.
