MAP FOR 4TH GRADE "AROUND THE WORLD" PROJECT.
This map reflects a sampling of countries that our students will research for our "Around the World" project; a study of culture, climate and agriculture of other countries through cuisine. Our students will be working with students from the subject country via epals. We have chosen to focus on the continent of Europe for this project because it provides a good sampling due to it's variety in culture, climate and cuisine in a rather concentrated area. Utilizing this map will give our students a perspective of where "we" are located, in Kalamazoo, MI USA versus where the countries and the students they are working with, are located. We have highlighted eight countries for this map as suggested countries for this project. It is our hope that through this project, students will gain an understanding and appreciation for people in parts of the world that they may otherwise know nothing about.
