Letters from the Past

In Room 6 we have been writing letters using our imagination - we have been imagining that we are living in 1915 instead of 2015, and writing letters to our male family members who are fighting at Gallipoli.

We thought about what they would be doing and what questions we had to ask and wrote a lovely letter asking them about their life in Gallipoli and telling them about our lives back in New Zealand during the war.


We painted paper with coffee and tea, scrunched it up and ripped the edges to make it look like it was really old, then we wrote our letter on it. They look great!
