5JW....to the Holy Lands


Monday 27th October

Today 5JW visted the art exhibition entitled 'To the Holy Lands' at DIFC.

The exhibtion was enjoyable and was beautifully presented. It consisted of many old photographs taken over a hundred years ago, well before the age of digital photogrpahy that we use today.


The subjects of the photographs were all pilgrims (Muslims, Jews and Christians) making various pilgrimages (special journeys) to the 'Holy Lands'.

We looked carefully at the photo's some of buindings and some of people.

WHICH PHOTO DID YOU LIKE BEST? WHY?



Our guides answered lots of our questions and we had to complete a worksheet.
We talked about timelines and history. We all made predictions of what could hapen in the future. We also chose items we would take if we were to go on a pilgrimage or long journey.

WHAT ITEMS WOULD YOU CHOOSE AND WHY?

The photographs were displayed in a lovely way.

WHAT DID YOU LIKE ABOUT THE PRESENTATION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS AND WHY?

We enjoyed our visit and found it interesting.
HAVE YOY ANY OTHER COMMENTS ABOUT THE GALLERY, PHOTOGRAPHS OR VISIT?
