Monuments detectives in the area

Students search for historical monuments in their town and prepare a mini guide to them.

Steps

1. The teacher shows the register of monuments or a map of monuments in their municipality.
2. Groups choose one object each: church, manor house, shrine, tenement house, monument.
3. On a walk or on the internet, they collect information: age, style, history, fun fact.
4. They prepare a guide page with a drawing or photo.
5. You staple the pages into a class guide to the area.

Tip: You can show the guide at the school open day or give it to the municipal library.
