London’s Burning!
In history this term Maple have been learning about timelines.
We found out all about how we have grown the great fire of London.
We know that this happened before anyone we know was born.
We used a sensory story to find out how the fire started and how it spread.
We know the fire started in a bakery.
We know that the wind helped the fire to spread quickly.
We know that the wooden houses burned down.
We know that the people tried to put the fire out with water.
We know that when the fire stopped the people were calm.
We know that the new houses were made from bricks so that they would not burn as easily.
We made some lovely detailed pictures of the houses burning in London.
The children said
“There was lot’s of fire” “The houses burned”
“Fire” “It burns all houses down”
“Fire, London”
