comparing countries

Please say hi to your partner and work together (communicating in English, you learn the best)


Congratulations on good work last class!

Today is more research.

Work with your partner. That's important, you know.


First, you both should find information about your partner's country.

Then you both  should find information about your country.

Later, if you have time, you should find information about the United States.


Do as much as you can in the time we have.
