Of course, the ancient Greeks didn't know about the Great Wall of China, or Stonehenge, or Kiyomizu Dera, so they have created a new list of Seven Wonders:

In class, the students made their own lists of seven wonders, which included Cheju Island, in Korea, Kyoto City, The Eiffel Tower, and Saint Mark's Cathedral, in Venice. What DO YOU think are the wonders of the world?

Let me know.

Enjoy the weather!
