Take your students on an educational journey to different schools around the world! The captivating photographs and fascinating facts will truly make the experience of "visiting" schools around the world a memorable one! Suggestions for Use: Comparing and Contrasting Recognizing Our Similarities and Differences Parts of the World Map Skills Students "visit" different schools around the world and will address the following questions: What Do Students Learn Around the World? How Do Students Get to School Around the World? What Do Schools Look Like Around the World? What Do Students Eat for Lunch Around the World? What Do Students Wear to School Around the World? What Days Do Students Go to School Around the World? I suggest beginning the unit by discussing the similarities and differences of the students in your classroom, and then branching out to discussing the similarities and differences among people and schools in the world. This unit covers MANY countries. It does not go too in-depth about any one particular country. However, it does expose your students to different parts of the world. I may make resources that more go more in-depth about different regions of the world in the future. The following countries are touched on in this packet: United States Kenya Peru Bolivia Japan China Finland India Uganda Morocco Philippines Thailand Part 1: Posters to hang in your classroom and to use while introducing your unit on Schools Around the World (real-life photographs along with important vocabulary). Part 2: Schools Around the World - These article pages were designed as a way for you to "hook" your students at the beginning of your unit. You can display the article pages on your document camera as a whole group or print and display during small group instruction. Part 3: Differentiated Schools Around the World Mini-Books - These are differentiated mini-books that can be used during small group instruction. There are three versions. Each version is slightly easier than the last. I wanted to give you options because I know that many of our students come in reading at different ability levels. It is up to you to pick and choose which articles you use with your groups. You can either print in color and laminate or print them in grayscale. Text-Dependent Response sheets follow! Real-life photographs will enhance your students' understanding of Ireland. I've also provided sheets for students to write a summary. Part 4: True/False Schools Around the World Activity - After learning facts about Ireland, students will sort the sentences according to whether they are true or false. I've also provided a cut/paste sheet too that requires students to read simple sentences and glue them in the correct column. 10 "School Snapshot" photographs and fact sheets to display during this unit. Graphic Organizers Galore - These graphic organizers, vocabulary books, and independent practice sheets can be used however you wish! I tried to offer you many different options to help meet the needs of your diverse group. In addition, I've also included links to some fabulous Schools Around the World web resources and books!

South America is found in the western hemisphere. Most of the continent is in the southern hemisphere, although some parts of the northern part of the continent fall in the northern hemisphere. The section in the northern hemisphere includes Venezuela, Guyana, French Guiana, Suriname, parts of Brazil, parts of Ecuador, and nearly all of Colombia. The Isthmus of Panama separates North American and South America, where the Darién Mountains are considered to be the dividing line between the two continents. Sometimes, the dividing line is considered to be the Panama Canal. By some classifications, South America is seen as a subcontinent of the Americas.

Amulek specifically mentioning his women, children, father, and kinsfolk as being part of his household provides interesting insight into the social structure of Book of Mormon societies and peoples. Far from the nuclear families prevalent today, this added detail “suggests an interesting pattern of kin connections” known in many ancient cultures, including ancient Mesoamerica. Later in the account, Alma and Amulek were forced to witness the horrendous execution of those who believed their preaching. This included women and children, and apparently members of Amulek’s own family. By first coming to know Amulek and his family, readers are able to empathize with them when the narrative makes a tragic turn for the worst.
