A Step Back in Time ….

14th Nov 2023

📕 Today P4 were transported back in time to an old school classroom where they were greeted by Miss Anderson- their teacher for the morning! 

📕 During the workshop, the boys and girls took part in lessons in reading, writing, arithmetic and geography using old slates and slate pencils.

📕 They also found out what happened to children who misbehaved or ‘fiddled’ or ‘slouched’!! 😳

📕 The morning lessons concluded with candle making and physical exercise. 

📕I think the children enjoyed the trip back in time but were glad to return to our normal classroom after break time!!

Thank you to Miss Anderson from Time Steps for your visit this morning - it really brought the old school classroom to life!!
