We have original documents from World War 2 times to use for our enquiry- how exciting!
The admission register tells us names, dates and addresses of pupils and the log book describes events at school in those days...
Class 4 were very excited to read what the log book said and wrote some notes about what they found out...
Then we looked at the admissions register to find out about the ages of the pupils when they began at Bressingham School and when they left.
Using an online graphing program, we created graphs to show what we had found out.
Following this, we looked at attendance figures, given as fractions, in the school log book for the war years and converted these to percentages, which was quite a challenge! Some used long division to help and some used calculators.
Here we are preparing our presentations; some groups chose to make PowerPoint presentations, some dramatic pieces, and some combined these two genre...
Finally each group presented their information to the rest of the class, who provided positive feedback and improvement points.
Amazing teamwork from all...
