GREAT is Great Britain



Great Britain: teaching resourcesWe are so enthusiastic about participating in GREAT is Great Britain project.
 As we live in Sevastopol, the town which is famous for its historical places all around the world, we have chosen Heritage is Great project.


We have already explored some British historical attractions, gone on virtual excursions to the three of the top five museums and galleries in the world and learnt a lot of interesting facts from the British history. But there is much more to be discovered.
 


 So the students of Year 5 a (teacher Shurupov V.V.), Year 7a and  8b (teacher Stepanenko L.Yu) and  Year 9a (teacher Kurilenko D.A.)  joined into groups to get to know more about British heritage and  find out the connections between British and Ukrainian heritages. 

                 We have a lot ot be proud of!
   


You can see these  menhirs  not far from our native town Sevastopol!


The students are making their group reseaches as a part of the GREAT  is Great Britain project and are going to present them  in our blog Connecting Classrooms Project Diary and at  our annual school conference 
" Across Britain".
