Year 1

Writing an eyewitness diary entry in the style of Samuel Pepys.

In our English lessons this week, Year 1 have been learning to write a diary entry in the style of Samuel Pepys, imagining ourselves as witnesses to the Great Fire of London. Of course, this has tied in very closely with our history learning, which has been fascinating the children this half-term.
