I loved this, and my students loved it! My students loved showing their understanding of what we had been learning about in class in a theme they enjoyed. I loved that not only did it show their knowledge, but I was able to see their personalities shine through on this project. We had a good time with this!
I used this during summer school. We combined a few subjects and I wanted to give them something to do that would encompass all subjects. They loved it. They were able to be very creative.
Kept the students engaged.
Great Product!
My students loved this. They are very curious about other countries and cultures. This made it easy for them to research.
My GT 8th grade students really enjoyed this as a class project. They were begging to do it.
Glad to hear!
I used this as the base foundation for a larger project where my 11-12 year-old class was creating a website for Iceland. We used this Project for a bit of relaxation from the research aspect of the whole project. The kids found it engaging and produced some AMAZING countries. It was a great reminder that when kids are given the freedom of choice, they can still produce exceptional work!
Thanks for your feedback!
Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!
I hope it works well for you. My students love the finished product.
