Week 4- The National Archives Visit



The Experience 


Seeing the real documents was a refreshing method of researching and an experience that makes you connect with history. It somehow made everything I've learnt about history seem very real and accessible. 

The trip will be of a huge benefit when starting the designing and structuring of the e-book, especially taking part in the KS1 class activities. This really put into perspective the learning abilities and expectations of that age group, therefore helping me to chose suitable activities to include. 

Out of the 10 significant people chosen for us, I only knew the history of a few the significant, knew a few other names, and some were unknown to me. Being able to look through all of their documents has helped me decide on who I think would be interesting, and people I wouldn't ordinarily select.
