Hello Laura,
If you read this message I have twice tried to send you help with your homework on Tudor food for the rich and poor, but the email address left on the message below must be incorrect as it is returned each time as 'unable to deliver'.
If you still need help please mail me your correct email address and I will forward the help you requested.
Sally

Becky's Mum phoned me after they had been searching the 'web' for Tudor Medicine and found this website. Becky's class of 9 year olds had all been asked to pick a subject from the Tudor history they were studying and give a five minute presentation to the class.
I sent the small Pomander Bead Kit, the booklet The Apothecary's Art, and from my own garden, some cleaned marshmallow root.
Not only was Becky going to make the Beads to take in - and I put a spoonful extra of each ingredient so she could pass this round - but she was going to put some of the root into water the night before and show the 'gloopy' liquid during the presentation as the starting point to making cough mixture.
This is the email I received after Becky had done the presentation to her class.

"Thank you for all the things you sent me for my talk. I gave my presentation today and think it went well. I even threw marshmallows into the group telling them that it was not that sort of marsh mallow I was going to talk about. I really enjoyed doing my talk but couldn't have done it without you.
Once again thank you
From Becky G
Cambridge"

There's a great teacher in the making! Becky knows all about grabbing your audiences attention from the start - I'd never had thought about throwing marshmallow sweets into the group, but I bet it made them sit up and listen!
Maybe one day I'll be watching Becky on my TV presenting interesting history programmes!!!

I am willing to help anyone and personalize any kit, and they really are easy enough for 9 year olds to use!

Some of the letters from my pupils to Sally after her visit to Barn End Centre for our History Week.

"Thank you for coming to Barn End to teach us about clothes and medicines in Tudor times.
It was very interesting to see how people made cloth from wool and to learn about the things that turned it different colours.
My favourite thing was making the smelly balls because they smell really nice. I gave them to my mum to put in her cupboard.
I hope you liked Barn End. Come and see us again soon.
E...."

"Thank you for coming to our school and teaching us. It was very interesting. The room was smelly for ages after. I'm glad I was not ill in Tudor times. It was nice to touch all the wool.
L..."

"Barn End would like to thank you for coming in and showing us what it was like in Tudor times. We all thought it was really interesting, everyone thought the way they span the wool was clever.
It was interesting how people used to use plants when they were ill.
We hope you enjoyed your time here as much as we enjoyed having you here.
J.... and everyone at Barn End"

Look forward to doing it all again in 2007!

Sue Deniz, History and Deputy Head

Hello Sally. I have just come across your website and I'm very impressed. As a Y6 teacher who loves history - especially the Tudors _ I'm always looking for resources to help me put the period across. I've added the site to my favourites list and the next time we 'do' the Tudors I'm sure I will be contacting you.
Best wishes
Cynthia Jasper
