The pupils showed an interest in looking at and taking part in a variety of old century memorabilia which included talking about what groceries they used to shop for and how it is so different to this year's time. The pupils enjoyed listening as the teacher explained to them about various equipment's that people used to use to create thread and how, and what machinery, steam would have been transported. The pupils enjoyed using different resources like a magnifying glass to see rocks and sands that people used to use to build houses and buildings. One of the pupils showed an interest in building shapes with the bricks saying "look I have built a arch". Another pupil put all of the pieces of a jig saw together to create the steam engine. As we were walking we saw a old telephone machine and talked about how people would put a ticket in a slot and that would record what time they had arrived at work.
After the pupils walked along Bewdley town center's river looking at the swans and pretending to talk to them by making similar sounds. Two of the pupils noticed a bench and went and sat on it together looking at the view of the river.
Then we went to the sweet shop as the pupils shared between each other and the teachers by talking about what flavours they could taste and what shapes they were for example; oval, little drops and "this looks like a fish and this one is a dolphin". The pupils also described the colours of the sweet as "blue, green, red and white". We had some fish and chips and sat along the river interacting with the seagulls and pigeons giving them names such as "that is Bob because he bobs his head" as they started to move their head back and forward in the same motion.
