Not so Terrible Tudors

This week Class 3 followed up their successful Church Assembly* on the Tudors by visiting Tudor House in Worcester.

The residents of this house in Tudor times were weavers, and we all had a go at weaving a cloth and finding out how the fibres were created. There was also a chance to look at Tudor architecture and discover how Tudor tools were very similar to the ones we still use today. There was a chance to dress up as poor and rich Tudor boys and girls as well as a brief look into Tudor past times and games.

Much fun was had by all and it really bought our learning connections topic alive!
