Teaching S1 today in ICT we were doing our Citizenship challenge and one of the groups received Panama as their country. I used this to share an interesting piece of knowledge/trivia with my pupils!
Leigh Mercer published an excellent and world famous palindrome (a sentance or word that reads the same backwards as forwards) in 1948 on the topic of Panama.
A MAN
A PLAN
A CANAL
PANAMA!
Check it, it works!
