Year 2 historians learn about the plague!5 December 2024 (by Chrissie Clifton (cclifton)) |
For their history topic this term, year two learnt about the plague! In one of their lessons, year two developed their knowledge on society to get better at building an overview of world history. Their teachers set up a mini London street in the classroom to demonstrate how the poor living conditions enabled the disease to spread quickly. Their poor teachers pretended to have the plague and chose some unlucky children buy some food from them on the streets. Soon the whole class had the plague, including our water bottles which were contaminated as they "contained infested water from the River Thames!"
