The Great Fire of London

This half term Year 2 children have been busy learning about The Great Fire of London, here are some key facts we have learnt:

* The fire started on Saturday 2nd of September 1666.
* The fire lasted for four days.
* They used leather buckets and water squirts to try and put the fire out.
* There were no fire engines or fire alarms in 1666.
* They used the church bells to warn people about the fire.

We made our own firework pictures using chalk and a range of materials ready for a display in our classroom. Below is a collection of pictures of our work – what do you think?
