websites for the geography project

http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0001742.html - geography site

http://www.theodora.com/wfb/abc_world_fact_book.html - world facts

http://www.allcountryinfo.org/ - more world info

http://www.ed-u.com/country-backgrounds-and-profiles-list.htm - country profiles

For famous people/authors/scientists... search your country on Wikipedia and look at the notable residents

I hope this helps... if you can't find someone, look for politicians and/or peacekeepers... be creative.

We will keep encouraging you to grow as learners, not just "students who HAVE to hand in assignments". To that end here is another website you may find interesting. http://www.earthcalendar.net/index.php

It allows you to check any country in the world on any given day and find out what they are celebrating!

I hope you find this useful, insightful, and informative -- even though it is "too late" to use for the project, it is never too late to learn something new.
