Inquire if students have learned about
geographical descriptions in other classes
such as social studies or geography. You may
want to ask what constitutes a continent, and
remind them that it is a large landmass; the
term is used to describe seven regions on
Earth, from Asia, the largest, to Australia, the
smallest continent. An island is defined as a
landmass surrounded by water on all sides.
The reason Australia is classified as a
continent rather than an island is more by
convention than by definition. If an island is
surrounded by water on all sides, then what is
a peninsula? What is an archipelago?
One suggestion to stimulate a conversation
is to ask students to compare what the
difference might be between living on a small
island and on a large one.
Review the words
norte, sur, este
, and
oeste
.
Remind students to use
al
before these
words.

Students who can read some Spanish can
most likely find different research sources
for the activities on this page than students
who are searching only in English.
r
These students can share with the class any
research sources or pieces of information
that they find that are only available in the
Spanish language.
COOPERATIVE LEARNING
r
Puerto Rico is comprised of three main
islands, including Culebra and Vieques,
which are popular tourist destinations.
r
You may want to ask students to work
together and find information about the
history of Culebra, Vieques, and the former
naval bases on both islands. Why were these
bases of strategic importance? Why did the
U.S. Navy close each base?
