Today I have done another Summer learning journey activity it is called A long walk to Freedom. This one was about when this guy called Nelson Mandela lived in South Africa. For many years,South Africa had different rules for people that had white skin and those who didn't. This was called Apartheid. Nelson Mandela felt that this was very wrong. He tried to change the law but he was sent to Prison. After that he became President of South Africa and ended apartheid. Nelson Mandela spent 18 years in prison he was locked away in a tiny,damp concrete sell, with only a straw mat to sleep on it must of been very hard for him. So what we had to do was write a diary entry pretending that you are Mr Mandela. And write at least four sentences to describe what he might be feeling or how would it be like in the prison.

ReplyDeleteGreat use of images! This really helps us readers to see who you are talking about. remember one other way you can engage your readers is to make your letter look as authentic as possible, something to keep in mind for next time :)
