Passport to the Pacific

Remember you will be completing a final report on the country you are studying and you will be preparing a display of your country for the Passport to the Pacific. I would highly recommend you get books about your country from the library, or do some internet research so that you will be able to complete your report. We will be working on this in class (throughout our lessons) in the coming weeks.

Please bring any questions you have to class for us to discuss.
