Happy Friday

Year 5!

🙂

Today, we are catching up on the week’s work. If you have no catching up to do, which is a few of us, then you can make a start on the theme homework. This includes Clio (see above) who is already on chapter 6! Try to stay near your computers in the morning and Mrs. Devaney and I will be contacting as many of you as we can to help you with any issues you have getting to the homework.

Theme

Your task is to choose a European landmark and do some research on it. It could be a famous building like Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany, or a monument, like the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.

Neuschwanstein Castle (Clio’s choice – she says old castles are full of mice)

The Arc de Triomphe

You could use one of the landmarks we looked at together, or you could choose your own. If you’re not sure about your choice, message me first before you start work on it.

You should include this information:

Where is your landmark located?

A picture of your landmark

The history of your landmark: when, why, how was it built? etc

Why would anyone visit your chosen landmark?

How popular is it, as a tourist destination?

What can people do there when they visit?
