Mrs Townsend Literacy Homework
I am Queen. (Or King)
Remember Queen Victoria become Queen when she was only 18.
If you woke up one morning and were told you were the new King or Queen of England what would you. How would you change things?
You should change at least 3 things. For example:
If I was queen I would pass a law that said everyone had to go to school on Saturday so that they could learn more. I would ban everyone from eating ice-cream because when I go to the shop sometimes they have sold out of my favourite kind. Although I could still ride around in a big car everyone else has to walk to help stop pollution and to save energy.
