Round up

Listen to Genevieve summarise what we’ve learned this week. It’s certainly true that we’ve covered a lot of ground!

• We’ve looked at the events leading up to the Declaration of Independence.

• We’ve explored two Suffrage movements: the Chartists and the Suffragettes.

• We’ve learned a little about the lives and work of two famous 20th century freedom fighters: Gandhi and Mandela.

In each case, we’ve considered how these movements towards equality and liberty were influenced by Magna Carta.

Now, please take a moment to think about these questions and share your ideas in the comments below.
