If you have not yet presented your GUM lesson, today is the day! We will participate in a short review activity on Thursday. You may use your notes at that time.
Let's look back at information from Thursday's blog. How is your wall activity coming along? (Time to share.)
Wall Research
Select a wall
Find the who, what, when, where, why, and how of your wall.
- Who built it?
- Of what is it made?
- When was it built?
- Where is it located?
- Why was it built?
- How was it built?
Locate at least one picture of the wall to include with your report. Your report will be in the form of a travel brochure. Your audience will include people who travel your people who long to travel.
- Keep in mind that travel can be expensive. Present your information in such a way that people will be longing to come and visit your wall.
- People want the most for their money. Tell them about the climate. Explain what other attractions are also in the area.
