2012 South American TAG Project
You have been introduced to the eight countries given to us in Standard SS6G1b. The countries listed are: Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Cuba, Haiti, Mexico, Panama, and Venzuela. Your assignment is to take a 22x28 poster board and divide it into 8 sections (each section should be 7x11). Each section should be labeled with the above countries name.
Here is an example of what your poster should look like (not to scale) Bolivia Brazil Colombia Cuba
Haiti Mexico Panama Venezuela
Using complete sentences, fill each box with as much information on that country as you can find. The information in each box should be neat and typewritten. DO NOT COPY AND PASTE FROM THE INTERNET!!!! Everything should be written in your own words. There should be at least one picture in each box. Creativity is KEY. The posters should be creative and colorful. The information that goes on the poster is your choice, however you should have at least 5 informational items in each box.
Please refer to your country profile worksheets for the information you will be using.
Your name and period should be written neatly on the BACK, not the front!!!! I will take off points if you do not follow this simple direction.
Using http:culturegrams.com and http:countryreports.com on the Media Center webpage, fill in the information on each of the following countries. Your country profile sheets will be turned in for a separate grade. Name______Per_____
