P3 had a brilliant afternoon on Wednesday when they shared their learning about all things Victorian with their families. We had kept all our knowledge top secret to surprise our families and it was lovely to now be able to share lots of different things. All the children developed their talking skills as they presented the information that they had chosen to share. A variety of other skills were shown off too and the children were really proud of their efforts.
Some comments from the class included:- ” I liked the way that everyone had a role and everyone did really well” (Gemma) ” I liked trying the gruel…but my mum didn’t!” ( Reece) ” I can now write my name in Victorian cursive writing” (Chloe) ” I remembered lots of facts about Victorian workhouses” ( Kevin).
The children loved hearing the feedback from their families too. Comments included – ” I enjoyed finding out all about the trip to New Lanark”, ” I thought the kids did a fab job with great information and talking clearly”, “I thought there was a great variety in the different parts of the celebration – informative parts, funny parts and entertaining parts”, ” I learned such a lot especially about Queen Victoria and Prince Albert”.
A big thank you to all who attended. Some pictures of our trip to New Lanark and our Victorian Celebration of Learning follow.
