Friday History

In celebration of Black History Month, we learnt abour four incredible women who worked at NASA. When we were studying them, we learnt a little about the space race between the USA and USSR. I thought it would be nice to learn a bit more about it. This 15 minute lesson is written by the same man who does the Horrible History TV show. Click on this link, listen carefully and complete the quiz at the end. Let me know how you got on and any interesting facts you learnt.

    1. Hi Hisham,
      Maybe one of your family members has an account that you could use? If not, don't worry, maybe you could do some research into the Space Race?
