After reading and listening to extracts from Samuel Pepys' diary, we wrote our own diary entries about the Great Fire of London. We made sure to include facts and feelings and we tried to use all our senses when writing descriptions. We wrote our diaries on coffee-stained paper to make them look old! Here are some pictures of our work on display.
Our connector this half term is Fire.
We had fun making small cakes. These cakes were eaten in 1666 and might have been what Thomas Farriner was baking when he forgot to put out his oven and started the Great Fire of London!
We had to weigh the ingredients carefully using the scales and then mix everything together in the bowl. After that we cooked them in the oven and finally ate them. They tasted delicious!
