A walk through a Victorian house.

Last week we did a class activity around Victorian houses. We had an opportunity to read and answer some comprehension questions about what Victorian houses look like and about the people who lived in them.
In this activity we'll travel back in time to 19th century England and get into a real Victorian house.
Help Ruby and Michael, two modern kids from the 21st century find their missing dog, Sam.
For some strange reasons, Sam got lost in the past and now Ruby and Michael have to interact with the people and the objects around the house.
Look in every room of the house.
Examine as many objects as you can to learn about Victorian life.
When you enter in a room, you'll be asked one question.
If you answer all the questions correctly you'll get a Certificate.
So, go ahead and fins Sam as soon as possible.

Good luck time travellers!
