Hi Everyone! 

I hope you enjoyed your virtual school tours last week. I have yet to visit the Titanic Museum and I would love to visit Africa one day! Which tour did you prefer? 

For your activity this week I’d like you to write 5-10 sentences about either the Titanic Museum or the National Park in Kenya. Pick your favourite tour and write some travel tips! 

• Why should we visit?
• What is there to do there?
• What is the weather like?
• How long does it take to get there?
• What is the best thing about the tour?

You can add a picture of your writing and record your travel tips on Seesaw. I look forward to hearing from you and seeing your writing. 

Enjoy your week. 

Ms. Kelly
