Early settlers




This morning our class went to the museum to learn about the early European settlers. First we went into a room that had a penny-farthing. It has one huge wheel and one little wheel. Then we went on a ship. By Jacob

I was amazed at how small the beds were and how the people had to sleep together. The rich people went to sleep in good beds but the poor people had  to be all squashed together in one bed. It would feel weird to be on a big ship with lots of people because we would be all cramped into each other. By Jono, James and Hannah

The rich people could take more things than the others. By Sebastian

They had cats to eat the rats and mice. By Logan R

  2. It's a bit like traveling by plane this days. Business class get places to lie down while the other passengers have to sleep sitting up, which is probably how much room they had on those small beds!

  5. I really enjoyed going to the museum with you. I learnt a lot about the life the immigrants had on the ship. I'm glad that I wasn't one of them, it didn't sound like very much fun. Congratulations on a well behaved class.
