Think of ghost stories that you know--those people in your family have told you,  or those that are well
known in your community.  You can re-tell or re-invent the story by going beyond the plot and
developing description and character.
 
Think about the customary elements of  a ghost story.  For instance, a ghost story usually includes some
old building, the night, a curse, bad weather, an unsolved death in the past, history. 
 
 1. Create two characters suitable for a ghost story--the victim (the person who is threatened or
harmed) and the ghost.Work out the name, age, background, psychological makeup, physical
description, family connections, circle of immediate friends, occupation, and anything else that
seems important about each character. 
2. Pick your setting (time and place).
3. What is the conflict in the story?
4. What is the basic plot?

The 'Last Post'

The "Last Post" is traditionally played to introduce the two minute silence in Remembrance Day
ceremonies. It is usually ' played on a bugle. (In military life, 'The Last Post' marks the end of the day
and the final farewell.)
Listen to the last post

The sounding of "Reveille" (or, more commonly, "The Rouse"), ends the two minute silence, followed
by the recitation of the "Ode of Remembrance."

"They Shall not grow old" ("Ode of Remembrance."

Remembrance Sunday is always the second Sunday in November. In 2021 Remembrance

Sunday will be 14th November.

Why Do We Wear Poppies?

A Canadian doctor, John McCrae, wrote a poem in 1915 about the devastation he saw in the
Flanders area of Belgium and in northern France during the First World War. The land lay
destroyed by terrible battles, and many men were buried there. But despite the devastation of
battle, the wild poppies survived. Dr McCrae's poem was published in Punch magazine, and the
poppy became the symbol of remembrance

Britain declares war on Germany: What began The Great War and how did it impact Britain?

How did the day unfold?

On 4 August 1914, Britain declared war on Germany. Although the war had officially been going on for
a few days, the events leading up to it had been going on for a while.

The United Kingdom declared war on Germany because they invaded Belgium which had been
neutral until that moment.

There wasn’t TV back then so people in Britain opened their newspapers on the morning of August 4th
and found out war had begun.

The story was front page news with headlines like “Great Britain Declares War on Germany” and more
simply, “War!” – but a few days prior, it was just a footnote…

A Day to Remember

CO/EOC/CE

A. Significance of poppies

Red poppies are often worn on Remembrance Day. The tradition has its origins in a poem written in
1915 by Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, a doctor in the Royal Canadian Medical Corps.
Lieutenant Colonel McCrae noticed that, despite the devastation caused by the war to towns, farms
and forests, thousands of small red poppies began growing everywhere in Spring. This inspired his
poem, In Flanders Fields:

In Flanders fields the poppies blow

Between the crosses, row on row
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead. Short days ago

We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe;

To you, from failing hands, we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

The poem was first published in England’s Punch magazine in December 1915 and within months
came to symbolize the sacrifices of all who were fighting in World War 1.
In 1918 Moina Michael, an American, wrote a poem in reply, We Shall Keep the Faith, in which
she promised to wear a poppy 'in honour of our dead' and so began the tradition of wearing a
poppy in remembrance.

It was French YMCA Secretary, Madame Guerin, who in 1918 conceived the idea of selling silk
poppies to help needy soldiers.

Poppies were first sold in England on Armistice Day in 1921 by members of the British Legion
to raise money for those who had been incapacitated by the war.

B. 
Animals played a large role during the conflict known as the Great War. From
traditional warfare animals such as horses and dogs to exotic animals such as lions,
monkeys, and bears, animals of all types were important to both the war effort and
to the morale of the troops on the front lines
 
Which animal provided the greatest assistance to soldiers during the war?
Explain your answer.”
 
Museum Animal Exhibit. Explain to students that they have been asked by the museum to create an
exhibit specific to one animal that contributed to the war effort.

Our Thanksgiving

CO+EOC
Thanksgiving in the USA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-0kktV9We0&list=PL5CBC5ADE94481EF3
Decorations:

 Collect acorns, chestnuts, leaves, pinecones, berries—whatever!—and arrange them with

organic gourds around a wreath  or simply place them in a large bowl. Oranges,
pomegranates, golden pears and other fall-colored fruit can also be used. And there you have
it: a simple, lovely, seasonal centerpiece.
  An hour or so of your time will provide a wonderful scent that lasts much longer.   All you need
to begin is an orange, lemon, or apple, plus cloves and a toothpick. Poke holes into the fruit,
and stuff them with cloves. You can cover the surface or make designs, leaving more peel
showing.
 Fall Leaves and Recycled Can Craft - you can do this with any metal or glass container!

The British currency is the pound sterling. The sign for the pound is 

GBP = Great British Pound 

We do not use the Euro. Although a few of the big shops will accept Euro, it is rarely used across
Britain.

Since decimalisation in 1971 , the pound has been divided into 100 pence.

The pound ( ) is made up of 100 pence (p) exactly like the dollar is split
into 100 cents.

The singular of pence is "penny". The symbol for the penny is "p"; hence an amount such as 50p is
often pronounced "fifty pee" rather than "fifty pence".

We have both coins and banknotes.

Current coins are:

1 penny, 2 pence, 5 pence, 10 pence, 20 pence, 50 pence, 1 pound, and 2 pounds.

Current bank notes are:

The 5 pound note, the 10 pound note, the 20 pound note and the 50 pound note.

Old money conversions to money used today

 Six pence - 2½p

 One shilling (or 'bob') - 5p
 Half a crown (2 shillings and sixpence) - 12½p
 One guinea - £1.05

This is a timeline that represents four different periods in British History.
The first period is called Stone Age and Bronze Age. Maybe because cavemen used stones. I can
see a caveman holding a wooden club in his hand. In the background there are two stones.
The second period is the Iron Age. Maybe because they discovered iron. On the drawing, I can see
weapons: a sword and a spear. The third drawing represents the Roman empire. There is a helmet
and a shield on the drawing.
The last period is the Vikings and Anglo Saxons time. I can see a typical Viking ship. Maybe it is going
to attack a country

The Norman Legacy –part 2

 Who were the Normans?TheNormans were the next group of people to rule
England after the Anglo-Saxons. They built some of our most well-known
castles, such as Windsor Castle and the Tower of London.

The Normans came from northern France, and invaded England in 1066 after
King Edward the Confessor died without leaving an heir to the throne. They
eventually defeated the Anglo-Saxons at the Battle of Hastings, when King Harold II
was killed. The Normans ruled England for about 300 years

1. The Normans came from northern France, in a region called Normandy.

2. The Normans invaded England in 1066 because they wanted to have Norman
king in England after the Anglo-Saxon king died.
3. The first Norman king was William the Conqueror, who won the Battle of
Hastings in 1066 against the Anglo-Saxons.
4. While the Normans planned their invasion, the Vikings were also interested in
taking over England – they were led by Viking King Harald Hardrada.
5. William the Conqueror published the Domesday Book, which tells us a lot
about the people who lived in England in the 11th century.
6. The Bayeux Tapestry tells a story in pictures about the Norman invasion of
Britain and the Battle of Hastings.
7. The Bayeux Tapestry also tells us things about Norman life, such as what
clothes, armour and even boats looked like.
8. The Normans built wooden houses covered in a mixture of mud, dung and
straw, which kept them warm in the winter.
9. The Normans also built stone castles – some of these are still standing today!
10. England in Norman times was ruled by the feudal system.
A. How did this system work? 
 
The feudal system and the Domesday Book
 

When William the Conqueror became king, he established the feudal system. It
put everyone into a sort of queue depending on what their place in society was,
and explained who they needed to pay money or tribute to in order to have a
house, grow food, etc.

 The king was at the front of the queue and owned all the land in England.
He then gave land to the barons, who could give the king knights and
money if he needed it.
 The barons were allowed to rent out the land that the king gave them to
the knights, who protected and provided for the baron, and went into
battle if the barons told them to.
 The knights could rent out the land they were given to serfs (also called
villeins), who were at the end of the queue. They could never leave their
master’s manor, and they worked for the knights without getting paid.
Serfs pretty much had to do whatever the knight asked – they even had
to ask permission if they wanted to get married.
