Children in the Victorian Age
We are going to tell you about children in the Victorian age.

A Victorian shop
http://www.ictadvice.org.uk/index.php?section=tl&cat=001001005&rid=5579
This activity took place with a Year 1 class during the autumn term in a two-form entry inner city primary school. The school is situated in an area of social deprivation where one third of the class had special needs, and a substantial minority did not have English as their first language. Most classes have access to only two computers, one of which has internet access.
The general aims were to give the pupils an introduction to ?he way of life of people in the more distant past?by examining what shops looked like in the Victorian era.

The Virtual Victorians
http://www.victorians.org.uk/
The Virtual Victorians web site provides learning materials for schools to study life in Victorian times.
Although the site offers resources for anyone with an interest in Victorian times, its core audience is Key Stage 2 pupils and teachers. Virtual Victorians is of particular relevance to the topic of Victorian Britain within the history curriculum, and the 'Teachers' Centre' offers ideas for teachers to support the QCA schemes of work and to help them use the materials in the classroom.
Here you can take a look at a typical week in our lives and ask us questions.
In the "Themes Gallery" you can see many of the things we use, and some things that we would like to be able to afford to use! You can even play with some of the children's favourite toys!
You can send something they are calling an 'eCard', whatever that is, and if you like news you can work on a Victorian Newspaper.
