5 lessons//1 Week
Week 1Lesson 1The Eiffel TowerRenowned French Engineer, Gustave Eiffel, designed this internationally- recognizable structure for the 1889 world’s fair in Paris, France. The building, originally designed to last 20 years, celebrates its 135th anniversary this year, because of constant care and renovations. Also known as the Iron Lady, it receives nearly 7 million visits annually. The tower boasts many little-known features, including a small apartment on the top level (home to Gustave Eiffel during construction).Lesson 2The Great Wall of ChinaConstructed over several dynasties to protect against invasions and raids from various nomadic groups and military invasions, this architectural gem spans more than 13,000 miles across northern China. Its most significant and well-known sections were built during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644 AD).The Wall’s construction involved millions of workers, including soldiers, peasants and prisoners sent north to fulfill their labor obligations. The Wall features watchtowers, fortresses and passageways.Lesson 3The Pyramids of GizaThese monuments are located on the Giza Plateau near Cairo, the capital city of Egypt. They represent ancient Egyptian civilization until the Roman Empire conquered Egypt in 30 B.C; and hold many clues about this mysterious and artistic territory. The pyramids were built more than 4,000 years ago as tombs for the pharaohs and were intended to ensure their safe passage to the afterlife. Pyramids were built for religious purposes. Humans still don’t fully understand their secrets.Lesson 4The Statue of LibertyThe Statue of Liberty. France gifted this masterpiece to the United States in 1876, in honor of the country’s 100th anniversary; and symbolizes freedom. The statue stands on Liberty Island in New York Harbor. Everything about the Statue of Liberty is big. Her head is 17 feet long and each finger is 8 feet long. Every day tourists go to the top of the statue by climbing 354 steps. The statue took nine years to make at a cost of $100,00.Lesson 5The Taj MahalThe Taj Mahal. Agra, India is home to this architectural treasure, built more than 400 years ago. Emperor Shah Jahan had it constructed in honor of his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal after she died during childbirth. More than 20,000 workers and 1,000 elephants helped build the Taj Mahal, which took 20 years to complete. The white marble monument features a red sandstone main gateway and mosque. The symmetrical building showcases four identical fronts with perfectly proportioned gardens.
