The Theme for April

Travel Back In Time
I have been caught up in all of the historical events taking place...the anniversary of the Titanic, the findings of a well preserved Woolly Mammoth - history fascinates me.

This month we are going to do a bit of travelling - time travelling. I want you to discover our past. Travel back to a period that fascinates you and discover more about that time.

Whilst on your travels I want you to look up somebody from that period and find out more about them:

Who are they? What did they do? What impact did they have on society, their country or even the world?

Bring your findings back to the present day and present them in any way that you choose - pictures, drawings, writing an article perhaps.

Then look at the following:

How do you think you would have lived during this time?
Is there anybody today who is similar to the person that you met in the past?
What lessons can we learn from the person that you met?

Finally...

What would you bring back today from the past? Maybe this will spark some debate and discussion at our next meal.

I'd like to go and visit Marilyn Monroe...I watched 'My Week with Marilyn' the other day and it was brilliant!
