My Howick
Historical Village Trip
On Tuesday the
junior syndicate went to the Howick Historical Village because we are learning
about change in the past and in the present.
First we all got
into groups because we had to go to four different activities. My first
activity was the inside toys and my favourite toy there was the gingerbread man
race. The little gingerbread man is at the bottom of the string and there’s a
little bit where you have to pull so the gingerbread man goes up. There are two
of these gingerbread men and the first person to get their gingerbread man to
the top of the string wins.
Next my group went
to the outside toys. I liked the outside toys because most of the toys were
made of wood and metal which made them hard but fun!
After that my
group went to the old school. I liked the old school because the teacher would
pick a student to come up the front of the class to count in twos and the
student up the front would have to look out for people that weren’t counting in
twos. If they weren’t they had to write on the slate board ‘I need to learn my
times tables 100 times’ – that’s a lot of times!
Finally my group
went to nursery rhymes. My favourite nursery rhyme was Jack Be Nimble because
we had to jump over the candlestick and try not to get burnt.
I loved going to
the Howick Historical Village. My favourite activity was the old school because
it would be funny if you would actually have to write ‘I need to learn my times
tables 100 times!’

On Tuesday the
juniors went to the Howick Historical Village and we did lots of fun things. We
went there to learn about old things.
First we did the
nursery rhymes and we did Jack Be Nimble Jack Be Quick and we had to jump over
the candle stick. We did other nursery rhymes too.
Next we did the
inside toys. I liked the inside toys because they are fun to play with and they
are fun to try to figure out how to play with them.
Finally we did the
old school. We had to do what the teacher told us to do otherwise you will get
wacked with the stick and it was so so so so funny!
I loved the old
school because the teacher did teaching with the children and teaching with the
maps and she did weird things!

On Tuesday Room 14
went to the Howick Historical Village to learn about things in the past.
First we went to
the nursery rhymes and we sang the song called Jack Be Nimble. We jumped over
the candlestick but we couldn’t touch the candle stick so we didn’t get burnt.
Next we went to
play with the toys and we had to try and work out how the toys work and try to
guess what they were made of. They were made of metal and wood and paint and
string.
Finally we went to
the outside toys. I rode a wooden horsey and it felt like I was on an alive
horse. I could run in circles very fast.
I loved the trip
because we could choose the outdoor toys to play and they were lots of fun!

On Tuesday Room 14
went on a trip to a village because that was a good idea and we thought we
should publish our writing.
First we did
nursery rhymes and we a look in the old house. We sang Jack jump over the
candlestick and we jumped over the candle stick. We didn’t want to get burnt so
we weren’t on fire.
Next we played
with the indoor toys and I played with the marbles.
Finally we went
into an old school and the teacher nearly wacked me with the stick on my head
because I was nearly going to sleep.
My best part of
the trip was the marbles because it was so cool when we had a race.

Last week the
juniors went to the Howick Historical Village because we were learning about
change.
First I did the
outdoor toys and played on the stilts. It was fun because I kept on falling
backwards.
Next I did nursery
rhymes. It was fun because if you touched the candlestick with your bottom you would
be on fire!
Finally I went to
an old school. If you were naughty you would have to pull your pants down and
the teacher would smack your butt. It was super funny!
The trip was super
fun because at the school people could get smacked on the butt!

Last week Room 14
went to the Howick Historical Village because we are learning about change.
First I did
nursery rhymes. I sang Jack be nimble and we had to not put out the candle. I
also learnt some other nursery rhymes from the past. They didn’t have TVs in
the past so they sang nursery rhymes instead!
Next I went to the
indoor toys and when the teacher told us to change we had to give the toy to
the child beside us. The indoor toys were interesting because they were made of
wood and rope and glass and metal.
Finally I went
into the very very old school and I learnt that they didn’t use pencils to
write. They used rock and it was noisy!
I loved going on
that trip because it was interesting and exciting. I felt like I had travelled
back in time!
