Integrating Learning

Our current writing topic is based on the story "Phineas Fogg, Around the World in 80 Days." 

We have mapped the journey he took with his butler and discovered he completed the task by luck as he travelled east to west which meant he managed to save time by going into different time zones.

While Phineas was doing his journey as a challenge and didn't get time to enjoy each new country, we are going to discover celebrations from around the world.  Who knows maybe one day we will be lucky enough to visit some of these locations.
