South America Continent Box
So here is my next continent box post! I actually have found quite a few things to put into my Asia box. This is a fun continent because there is a lot of different cultures here to gather from. I really want to gather a few more things from Japan or from some of the Islands in the south. But here is what I have currently!
This box includes:
~ Pictures of South American People
~ Pictures of South American Food
~ Pictures of South American Musical Instruments
~ Pictures of South American Places
~ Pictures of South American Birds
~ Pictures of South American Animals
~ iguana, Llama, tortoise, Snake, Parrot and other South American Animals
(from the Safari LTD Wild Toob
)
)~Emerald Gem Stone
So there you have it. Unfortunately, we have almost no cool stuff for this box! It is still a big work in progress. Maybe I will find something fun soon. If you have an idea of something fun to put in the box, please let em know! I would love ton have some ideas! Happy Schooling!

I always love seeing the boxes :). I will probably try to get things from Brazil when we get to this box, since they would likely be the easiest. Maybe something to represent the Catholic church, since many people there are Catholic? Coffee beans? Fruit? Just ideas, I haven’t thought through this one yet! The toob animals are a great idea!

Coffee Beans!!!!!! What a brilliant idea! Catholic Church is a good idea too! I may even have something here (we are Catholic). Thanks for all the ideas! You are the best as always Lisa!

I love this idea. I teach 2nd grade French in a dual immersion program and have 2 1/2 hrs/day to cover math, French literacy, science and social studies (all in French). My current approach to introducing the students to the continents is too labor and time intensive. Using the boxes will not only introduce them to each of the continents, but when used as a center will open up conversations between the students. This will also create many opportunities for writing activities. Thank you for this wonderful idea! I can’t wait to get started on this project.
