This week’s homework is creative and is due on Wednesday 06 May 2015.
If I ran the country I would…
It’s the General Election on Thursday 07 May so how would you like the country to be run? At home, get your child involved in thinking about what we are voting for and how it might change things across the country. What are the main parties called and what kind of things are they promising? Then, in as creative a way as you like, think about how you would run the country and what your main policies would be (as a serious bid or with crazy ideas just for a bit of fun).
Your child could…
- create a speech for people to vote for you
- draw a ‘Theme Park Map’ of the country as it would look if you ran it
- create a manifesto
- write a story with you as the prime minister
- write a letter to the prime minister suggesting the policies you would put in place
I look forward to the interesting ideas you come up with for the country’s future.
