Take your students on a trip to Rio de Janeiro with an engaging reading comprehension worksheet and Carnival Mask activity.
Take Geography Lessons Across the Curriculum!
One of the best ways to improve students’ geographic skills is to incorporate cross-curricular activities focused on different countries around the world. Through engaging cross-curricular lessons, students gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of countries and cultures around the world while also improving their reading and writing skills.
This year, we challenge you to turn your students into world travelers through engaging Geography lessons that can blend into Reading and Writing classes. We’re excited to get you started with a brand new Reading Comprehension Activity Pack about Rio de Janeiro!
