In Social Studies, we were learning about interior design across the decades starting with the 1950’s. – Ellis

In the 1970’s people had a lot of fake plants and greenery. In the 1990’s a lot of people had space themed blankets, pillow covers, curtains and light shades. – Subhan

In the 1960’s they also had lava lamps which would match with the kaleidoscope patterned wallpaper. – Sam

In the 1980’s people decorated their homes with lots of vibrant and quirky colours and they liked turquoise, pink and purple. – Joshua

In the 1950’s they had a lot of pink and floral patterns on the chairs. This is because the men were at work and the women were at home so the women made the houses look a bit more ‘girly.’ – Roslyn

We turned shoe-boxes into rooms and we chose which decade that we would like to make. We used paper straws, paper bags and cardboard. – Sophie

A couple of people tried to make 2 floors with 2 boxes. – Arjun
