Postcard from Angkor Wat
Summary of task
Students were asked to imagine visiting Angkor Wat in Cambodia and to design and write the two sides of a postcard detailing what they had seen and learned at the site. They were provided with a teacher-created template to record their thoughts and observations, and the postcards were printed and displayed in the school library. The task was part of a unit of work on the Khmer Empire and was completed in class over three 50-minute lessons.
