Theme - Air Raid Shelter

Activity

• How would it feel inside an air raid shelter?
• What did they see when they got out?
• How would they feel?
• Discuss and design a WW2 shelter

Children draw a bird’s eye view map of the inside of an air raid shelter. Discuss how they are going to make it comfortable? Remember to think about the resources available during the war. Once completed, children annotate the design to explain their reasons.
In groups, discuss and decide the safest and most effective shelter, create a mini model.

Following this, decide as a class a shelter that they can explore and use as a role-play area. If possible build this in an outdoor space. If this is not possible, have a role-play area inside the classroom that the children can build themselves.
Once the shelter is built, give the children time to experience inside the shelter and discuss how different it would feel during a bombing raid.
Allow the children the opportunity to respond to their experiences and feelings through the medium of art. Encourage the children to draw what it was like for them in the shelter, reflecting the dark, the cold, the damp and the feelings the experience provoked.

• Imagine: Your house has been bombed and you have nothing left.
• What would you need to carry on after the bombing?
• How will Tommy’s mum’s relatives help?
• Create their conversation.

Prediction – what do you think “the decision” could be?
