In this project, you will learn about one of the countries that represents your ancestors. You will learn about your unique heritage by reading about the customs and traditions that are an important part of your family’s story. If you don't know your heritage, that's ok. Choose a country of your choice that you are interested in learning more about.

You will explore the geography, religion, achievements, political system, economy and social structure of the country you have chosen. The information that you gather will be presented in a poster.

Before you can create your poster, you must complete the brainstorming sheet. See left for example.

Below are websites for you to use to get your answers. You may not use Google (Kiddle is the equivalent). All answers can be found on these sites.
