William Shakespeare was an English playwright and poet, widely
regarded as one of the greatest ever English writers. Some of
Shakespeare’s better known plays include ‘Romeo & Juliet’, ‘Hamlet’
and ‘Much Ado About Nothing’.
Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in 1564 before moving to
London to become an actor at age 21. Shakespeare wrote different genres
of plays throughout his career, starting out mainly with comedies and
histories before moving on to tragedies as he grew older. In 1599, along with some fellow actors, Shakespeare built a theatre
on the South Bank of the River Thames which he named ‘The Globe’. It was
here that many of his plays were performed. Today, visitors to London
can still watch Shakespeare plays at the restored Globe Theatre. William Shakespeare was a very well-known character in Tudor England. It is thought that Elizabeth I was a fan of his plays.
Although it is not a big event or a national holiday, St George's Day is
celebrated on 23rd April each year. It's a great excuse to enjoy or
learn about some of England's customs and traditions, and also to think
about knights and castles and dragons.

Earth Day, which was established in 1970 in the US, is celebrated on 22nd April
each year. It is a day to think about our planet and what we can do to
keep it special; to think about saving water and energy, reducing
pollution, recycling, protecting our animals, trees and plants, and
generally getting kids interested in protecting their environment. http://www.activityvillage.co.uk/earth-day

People lived in
the United States long before the arrival of Christopher Columbus and the Europeans. These people and cultures are called Native
Americans. Sometimes these people are calledIndians or American Indians. This is because when Columbus had first
landed in America, he thought he had sailed all the way to the country of India. He called the
locals Indians and the name stuck for some time.
In the United
States there were Native Americans in Alaska, Hawaii, and the mainland of the
United States. Different tribes and cultures lived in different areas. In the
middle of the country lived the Plains Indians, including tribes such as the
Comanche and Arapaho. In the Southeast area of the country lived tribes such as
the Cherokee and the Seminole.
Today, some of
the descendants of the original American Indians live on reservations. These
are areas of land set aside specifically for Native Americans. This helps to
protect their heritage and culture. However, only around 30% live on
reservations. The rest live outside the reservations just like anyone else.
