South America Brochure Project

          Your student has a MAJOR project due on December 17. This project will not be taken for a late grade. Each student has already selected a country in South America to research. Your student will create a brochure or poster to showcase their chose country. Students have received the below guidelines, as well as the rubric. Please, DO NOT lose this paper, as I will not reprint them. Email me at, brownpk1@scsk12.org, if you would like to know what country your child has chosen.

Project description:
Choose a country in South America, conduct research and create a travel brochure for that country! I have provided some guidelines but, you may feel free to add anything that you think will be appropriate. This is a travel brochure for third graders like you, so make it fun and interesting! 
Project Guidelines
Your travel brochure must: 
  • Title page: Name of country, Your Name, Your Class (3-02 or 3-03)
  • A picture of the flag of the country
  • Map of South America, with the country highlighted
  • Information about the climate: What is the weather like?
  • Cultural information (food/music/art/clothing/ festivals or holidays)
  • Famous sites (museums, parks, beaches, monuments, ruins, etc.)
  • Historical information (examples: When did it become independent? Is there anything particularly unique about the country’s history?)
