Latin American Project 
Latin American Project
This is a skills building formative assessment. We will work on work attitude, develop skills in research using the internet, focus on "place" as a geographical theme, and culture in the field of social studies. You will develop a vacation package for a customer who is interested in going on a trip to learn about the culture and physical features of a randomly picked Latin American country.
