My Flipsnack

We went on a trip to the Historical Village, so I decided to make a Flipsnack about it.

Warm and cool colours

My KWL chart

What’s Next
LI: To use a KWL chart help us think about how schooling has changed over time, and will

continue to change in the future

KWL charts help us to record the facts we know, the facts we want to find out and the -facts we have learnt

K                                    9/5/13	W             9/5/13	L
1900: Boys use to go to the toilets outside. You weren't allowed to be in a car without your brother or your dad. All the teachers were strict. Teachers also had to follow rules. Kids would be punished if they didn’t do what they were told. In some classes you were not aloud to smile. You weren’t aloud to wear a skirt that was two inches above your knees. You were not aloud to smoke Their schools were very small 2013: We have computers we do not get hit We are allowed in the car without being with your dad and brother Teachers skirts does not have to be 2 inches above your ankles. Our teachers are very nice and they do not swear at us We have white boards We have pens Our schools are very big The classes are warm and have light We learn many subjects Our schools now have lots of books Girls and boys work together 2100:	What happens now and why? How does this differ from the past and why? What is causing the changes and why? What might happen in the future?                                                                       What do you want to happen in the future and why? Why did they get punished? Why did they change during the future? Why were teachers strict? Did teachers ever swear at the children? Why were there so many punishments for the children? Why aren't you allowed to  wear bright clothes? What would happen if the teacher’s didn’t follow the rules? What was their reaction when  they heard about these punishments? Did any of these children’s parents complain about their injuries? How did the teachers feel when they were hitting the children?	If children were late for school they had to write a hundred of lines on the chalkboard. Children that were late to school were called tardy. Children weren't allowed to smile when they took pictures. If you wrote with your left hand you would get in trouble. You were not allowed to walk down to the ice-cream shop. You had to be home between 8:00pm-6:00am. Kids weren't allowed to wear bright clothes. The children’s biggest punishment was sitting girl, boy, girl, boy.
