What educators are saying

This was an excellent addition to my Queen Elizabeth II funeral. We watched the funeral procession and the students worked on the worksheet. We also spoke with a British accent all day, which they loved.
This resource was excellent. It was updated to include information about the queen's death and the new king. My students loved the crossword and the word search too.
