Today we’ll go on an imaginary journey to America. We shall sum up what we have
learnt about America, its symbols, holidays and everyday life.
Slyde 3
There is a very popular song in America.
Some people want it to become the national anthem.
The song praises the whole country.
Katherine Lee Bates is the author of the song.
She was impressed by a wonderful view of the mountains and the sky while travelling in
Colorado.
O beautiful for spacious skies,
for amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
above the fruited plain.
America! America! God shed
His grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea.

Until the end of his life Columbus thought that he had discovered a new way to India.

In 1507 the mapmaker Martin Waldseemuller named South America after Amerigo
Vespucci.
Amerigo Vespucci was an Italian businessman. He made three voyages to America from
1499. He proved that the land called India by Columbus was not India at all. It was a new
continent.

The bald eagle was chosen because of its beauty, great strength, long life, and because it's native

Historians are not sure how the character “Uncle Sam” was created.
Many think it was named after Samuel Wilson.

the Revolutionary War.
Later he was a businessman and in 1812 supplied the US army with beef in barrels. On the
barrels letters “US” were written. One of the workers once said that US stood for Uncle Sam
Wilson. So the nickname “Uncle Sam” appeared.

Slyde 30
The White House is the home of the President of the United States. Whoever is President lives

It is located in Washington.

The British burned the mansion down during the War of 1812, but it was rebuilt.
Throughout the years, 43 presidents have made some of the most important decisions in history

Slides 17 – 21
George
Georgina is a tomboy and insists that people call her George and not Georgina. With her short
hair and her boy's clothes she is often mistaken for a boy and this pleases her enormously. Like
her father, Quentin, George has a fiery temper. She is fierce, headstrong and very loyal to those
she loves. George is a cousin to siblings Julian, Dick and Anne.
Julian
Julian is the eldest of the five, cousin to George and elder brother to Dick and Anne. Tall, strong
and intelligent as well as caring, responsible and kind, he is the leader of the group.
Dick
Dick has a cheeky sense of humour, but is also dependable and kind in nature. He is the same
age as his cousin George, a year younger than his brother Julian and older than his sister Anne.
Anne
Anne is the youngest in the group, and generally takes care of their domestic duties during the
Five's various camping holidays. She is more likely than the others to become frightened and
famously dislikes the adventures the Five constantly encounter
Timothy
Timmy, sometimes called Tim, is George's dog. Timmy is very clever, affectionate and loyal to
the Five and to George in particular; he provides physical protection for the children on multiple
occasions. George adores Timmy and thinks that he is the best dog in the world. In the first book
of the series, George's parents have forbidden her to keep Timmy and George is forced to hide
him with a friend in the village. After the end of the Five's first adventure she is allowed to keep
him.
