As stated in many earlier blog posts, I find it so important in my around-the-world art and cooking classes for kids to start our study of a country by learning basic country facts.
To do so, I always make a country board for the first class of our 5-week session. My students have come to expect it and they are always excited to see how it will be presented.
Country boards not only give a great starting overview of a country but also spark interest in students who want to learn more.
I have made country boards for my children prior to family trips as well. It generates pre-trip excitement and also confidence when arriving in a country knowing we have a little knowledge under our belts.
Whether in your home or in your classroom, the look and feel of Mexico generated from this country board will set a solid foundation for future learning.
With this 24-page Mexico Country Facts Board digital download (PDF), you can skip hours of research and use this as your go-to for teaching your children or students about this culturally rich North American country in the most visually appealing way possible!
Not to mention, kids LOVE making these boards! The download comes with easy instructions so you can simply print, cut, and display 16 country facts about Mexico in any way that your learners or you prefer. There is also a game, recipe, and so much more!
Just use a standard-size white foam board (20 x 30 inches) and some green and red paper for the background.
Choose from two sets of picture cards to display, and don’t forget the coat of arms to complete the flag!
Display in your home, homeschool, or classroom to supplement any Mexico crafts for kids you might be doing.
