Problems with blog?

If you are having problems with the blog or finding the posts you need, please email me at MelodyStratton@liceopinoverde.edu.co. I saw comments, but they are anonymous, so I don't know how to help you.

To find the social studies homework, just click on "social studies" under "Labels" on the right side of the blog. You can find old blog posts by going to "Blog Archive" on the right side of the blog, too. Blog Archive is under Recommendations, and Labels is under Blog Archive.

Here is the old social studies homework about the Ancient 7 Wonders of the World. The New 7 Wonders homework is underneath this post.

You need to read and listen to an article about the Seven Wonders of the World. To do this homework, you will have to go to a DIFFERENT website. Here is the website: http://esllisten.blogspot.com/2009/05/seven-wonders-of-world.html

You should read the WHOLE article, but while you are reading it, you need to LISTEN to it, too. To listen, you should press the play button (little triangle) at the top of the page. When you are finished reading, you need to answer the questions below. You should turn your answers in on a piece of lined paper. (Don't do this in your notebook!)

1. Why aren't any of the original seven wonders of the world in South America?
2. Why wasn't the Great Wall of China one of the seven wonders of the world?
3. What is the only original wonder that we can still see today?
4. What happened to the Hanging Gardens of Babylon?
5. What was the lighthouse in Alexandria used for?
