Welcome to our first Year 7 wiki

where we will explore

 the Victorian Times.

Here are some points to help you structure a great Victorian report:

1: Give your work a title?

2: Write a general opening statement about your topic?

3: Have separate paragraphs for different aspects of your topic, e.g. dates, types jobs, diet, invention.

4:  Finish your work by writing a concluding statement.

5. Are there any diagrams or illustrations that would help?

(Remember to make sure your pictures are copyright free - there are lots of free sites, e.g.http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/primaryhistory/victorian_britain/

Language features to remember:
