Here’s the answer, what's the question? • • • • •
Select an answer from the list below and generate a question that could lead to that answer. The question should be designed to develop the detail of what heritage means. You may need to add to the answer to make the question-answer relationship work. Use ideas from class discussion and the UNESCO video to help you. E.g. A: We grow up immersed in our local environment, this creates a strong connection to place. Q: Why are buildings, civic space and the natural environment important to people? Answer edit: the words in blue were added to help to create the question.

MANCHESTER is a very important city in England, and is often called the ‘Capital of the North’. Manchester has many places for the arts, places for learning, businesses providing media as well as lots of shops. Manchester is a fastgrowing city (meaning lots of jobs are being created). Manchester was the host of the 2002 Commonwealth Games. It has two well-known football teams, Manchester United and Manchester City. Manchester was the first city to industrialise, because of the Industrial Revolution. It became the main place for making cloth and fabric. During the 19th century it had the nickname Cottonopolis, because it had so many cotton mills. The middle of Manchester is important because of its network of canals and mills built during its 19th-century development.
NW REGIONAL IDENTITY Greater Manchester is a metropolitan county and combined authority area in North West England. It encompasses one of the largest metropolitan areas in the United Kingdom and comprises ten metropolitan boroughs: Bolton, Bury, Oldham, Rochdale, Stockport, Tameside, Trafford, Wigan, and the cities of Manchester and Salford.
SYMBOLIC CODES OF BELONGING BY WISDOM AND EFFORT Probably the most famous part of Manchester’s crest, a globe covered with seven bees flying over a globe, symbolising Manchester's industry being exported across the world. The ship in full sail represents the city's trade with the rest of the world. The red shield with gold stripes is taken from the lords of Manchester, who ruled the city prior to 1301.
‘Mutare Vel Timere Sperno’ – I spurn to change or to fear
The lion is a symbol of bravery and strength, whilst the antelope relates peace and harmony, extreme courage and discipline.
At the foot of the coat of arms is the city's motto, ‘Concilio Et Labore’, which means ‘by Counsel and Work’. Concilio Et Labore, which can be loosely translated to ‘by wisdom and effort’, is drawn from a phrase taken from the Book of Ecclesiasticus 37:16: "Let reason go before every enterprise, and counsel before every action".

THOMAS PAINE: IDEAS FOR TOMORROW - BY WISDOM AND EFFORT Thomas Paine (1737-1809) took part in the American War of Independence and the French Revolution. His ideas in works such as Common Sense, The American Crisis, The Rights of Man and The Age of Reason were enormously influential on the British radical movement of the late C18th and early C19th. Pursued by the government, he had to flee from Britain to France and never returned, ending his days in the USA. In the 1820s radical groups in Manchester and elsewhere celebrated the birthday of Thomas Paine with dinners, songs, poems and toasts to “the immortal memory of Thomas Paine”. INTELLECTUAL CURIOSITY / EXPLORING THRESHOLD CONCEPTS: What is a radical idea? Watch the following video and then go on to explore the radical ideas cards. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8YjhncERoY
The desk where Thomas Paine wrote a book called The Rights of Man can be seen on display at the National Museum of Democracy in Manchester. On that desk ideas were born that would cause a global revolution.

RADICAL PRESS - POLITICAL PAMPHLETS THEN & NOW BY WISDOM AND EFFORT
‘When it should be said in any country in the world ‘my poor are all happy, neither ignorance or distress is to be found among them, my jails are empty of prisoners, my streets of beggars, the aged are not in want, the taxes are not oppressive … where these things occur then that country can boast of its government.’ ― Thomas Paine, Rights of Man (1791)
LIBERTÉ, ÉGALITÉ, FRATERNITÉ We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
Next time… Like Paine, you are now going to draft the outline of a short ‘pamphlet’. Paine used pamphlets to spread his ideas and as a way to try to convince people of the value of his thoughts. He expected to be met with criticism and resistance. Can you think of any ideas which are met with resistance today? How do campaigners get the government and public to listen to them today? TASK: Identify an issue that you feel strongly and use the pamphlet outline sheet to record your ideas. There are issue suggestions on the pamphlet guide sheet to help you.
