Primary 6 Research Ancient Times!

Primary 6 are reading a book about ancient times in their lessons. We asked them to choose one ancient time from the book to research. Here are some of the best answers.

Ancient China:

“These people made the compass, fireworks, paper scrolls and the Great Wall” (Ann Tsoi, 6C).

“I would not like to travel to this time because Ancient China was struggling and the king was silly and selfish” (Ann Tsoi, 6C).

“I would like to travel to this time because I like to eat dumplings” (Adrian Chia, 6C).

 “I would prefer to be a woman in this time because women can wear the beautiful top knot” (Cherry Sui, 6A).
