Thackray Museum of Medicine

As part of our expedition, ‘How can a healthy lifestyle impact your body and mind?’ Y5 and Y6 visited the museum to learn about the history of medicine from the 1800’s to the modern day. As we walked round, we had a range of questions to answer in our pairs for each of the different medicine rooms that we entered. We had lots of reading to do in order to really understand how medicine has dramatically changed over the years. This meant our Work Hard and Get Smart HOWLS had to be secure so that we could be successful in our comprehension work!
