Completing your blogs

Your blogs must be finished by 12pm on Friday. You must write a total of 500-600 words over three topics - you can choose any topic from term 2. Look at the questions I posted at the beginning of Term 2 and also the one on the North-South divide. Try to make a comparison with your country for each topic you choose.

Choosing internet sources

We have now checked the first 13 questions and answers on Identity. Now find out more about the North-South divide in the UK by searching approproiate sources on the internet. When you have chosen a source you think is suitable which gives interesting and reliable information, put the link on your blog. If you want you can also paste a small section of the source on your blog.

What have you found out and what is the significance of the North-South divide?
