Teaching world geography can prove challenging and abstract. One of the best ways teachers can combat that is by bringing their study of various places around the world to life with dynamic and customizable projects that combine digital storytelling, geography, and student imagination.
Introduce students to writing, digital storytelling, and 21st century skills through project-based learning. Storyboard That has created resources and lessons to help busy Elementary school teachers add something new and versatile to the classroom.
Students can create a mock travel brochure while studying world geography to highlight food, climate, attractions, and more!

Arc de Triomphe
The Louvre Museum
The Eiffel Tower was constructed from 1887 - 1889 by Gustave Eiffel. It's 324 meters (1,063 feet) tall and is located in Paris, France. It is perhaps one of the most well known French landmarks, drawing over 6 million visitors each year.
While croissants and French bread are perhaps the most well known French foods, they are also known for macarons, chocolate mousse, brie, eclair, croque-monsieur, and omelettes.
Breakfast in France usually consists of breads with jams, honey, or butter (or a mix) and a hot drink. Sometimes the bread is toasted.
