The book compares historical photographs of schools and school life from the turn of the century with equivalent modern photographs. By comparing photographs from the past and present, children are able to develop observation skills, ask questions, and discuss their ideas. Supporting information on the photographs, differentiated text and a picture glossary allow the book to be used on a number of levels by children, teachers and parents.
This is Book 6 in the History from Photographs Series. See all History from Photographs books here.
