The children looked at a selection of images and decided whether it was linked to the plague or COVID-19. Our red hoop being the plague and our blue hoop being COVID-19. We looked at ‘coughing’, ‘plague doctors’, ‘social distancing’ and many more. We held a discussion about WHY we put the certain pictures in certain spots. \#Enjoy # Embrace #Evolve ### History COVID-19 vs. The plague [![](https://files.schudio.com/delph-side-community-primary-school/images/gallery/history-covid-19-vs-the-plague/HP6(1).jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/delph-side-community-primary-school/images/gallery/history-covid-19-vs-the-plague/HP6(1).jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/delph-side-community-primary-school/images/gallery/history-covid-19-vs-the-plague/HP5.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/delph-side-community-primary-school/images/gallery/history-covid-19-vs-the-plague/HP5.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/delph-side-community-primary-school/images/gallery/history-covid-19-vs-the-plague/HP4.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/delph-side-community-primary-school/images/gallery/history-covid-19-vs-the-plague/HP4.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/delph-side-community-primary-school/images/gallery/history-covid-19-vs-the-plague/HP3.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/delph-side-community-primary-school/images/gallery/history-covid-19-vs-the-plague/HP3.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/delph-side-community-primary-school/images/gallery/history-covid-19-vs-the-plague/HP2.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/delph-side-community-primary-school/images/gallery/history-covid-19-vs-the-plague/HP2.jpg) [ Online Safety in Y4](https://www.delphside.lancs.sch.uk/blog/2023-10-04-20-02-35-online-safety-in-y4) [Reception- Jack and the Beanstalk ](https://www.delphside.lancs.sch.uk/blog/2023-10-05-13-07-32-reception-jack-and-the-beanstalk) ![Delph Side Community Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/delph-side-community-primary-school/images/logo/Untitled_design_(10).png) #### Delph Side Community Primary School Eskdale Tanhouse Skelmersdale Lancashire WN8 6ED 01695 721881 #### Useful Links - [Ofsted Report](https://www.delphside.lancs.sch.uk/our-school/ofsted-report) - [Term Dates](https://www.delphside.lancs.sch.uk/termdates) - [Contact Us](https://www.delphside.lancs.sch.uk/contact) #### Social Media - [Facebook](http://facebook.com/Delph-Side-Community-Primary-School-584597861558880/) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/delphside/) © Copyright 2018–2026 Delph Side Community Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.delphside.lancs.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
