The last page is an extension activity which is a blank Venn diagram where students can list any other toys that they can think of from the past or present. Please bear in mind that the teacher answer sheet is just a guide. There are many schools that have hopscotch grids painted in the playground and every now and then marbles make a comeback etc. A Lego set is also shown in the ‘present’ even though Lego started in 1932. We have chosen a robotic "Mindstorms’ set to represent Lego so have therefore placed the picture in ‘present’. The teacher answer sheet is just a guide but the answers many vary from school to school, or even classroom to classroom. This activity leads to some good discussion point about the placement of toys in the Venn diagram. Students can also discuss why the toys they sorted into ‘past’ are no longer used by most children.
