Antarctic wildlife

When I was in Antarctica, I was really lucky to see all kinds of animals. Here are some pictures of some of them...





Using history



This is me teaching history to the top class at the orphanage . During this lesson we were looking at the Indian Mutiny of 1857 or as the book that I was using called it, the First War of Independence. It's really interesting how even at a school level, countries use history to re-imagine the past and create a national consciousness or maybe consensus.

I am wondering what events in British history are subject to the same level of spin. Was Magna Carta really that important? Did it really make any difference that Charles I was beheaded? Or are these two events only important in retrospect?
