Learning Journeys

This week we review our Learning Journeys in English.

Marco Polo was a famous explorer. He went places no European had gone before. Going to new place or learning new things can be like Marco's journey. Everything is new, exciting, scary.

What dangers do you think Marco imagined? What new things did he see and learn about?

Here is the "fold and do" dictation about Marco Polo.

Here is the story (with questions) about Marco Polo.

Here is a map of Marco's journey. 




Look at a modern atlas and list the countries Marco travelled through
