Argentina

This week, in our NOW group, the boys learned about... From the moms in with the K-kids, I hear that A did a great job of keeping the kids attention. They read 2 stories, and the boys came home excited about the Gouchos (cowboys)! Here are the belts they made. L and T now know about 3 South American countries. There are similarities, but they are also very different. Brazil is known for its rainforest and Paraguay is dominated by rivers. The kids learned about the grasslands of Argentina, the Pampas. Pampa is a word of Quechua origin that means "a plain without trees". This fertile land is the home of the gaucho.
