The Vulture
by Hillaire Belloc

The vulture eats between his meals,
And that's the reason why
He very, very rarely feels
As well as you or I.

His eye is dull. His head is bald,
His neck is growing thinner,
Oh, what a lesson for us all,
To only eat at dinner!

Geography:
Pick one country from the list and come ready to present on it.

Choose any country to learn about in more detail and present to us. You can work on the same country as your siblings, or you can choose a different country. You will have 1-2 minutes to tell us all about your country. You can present it as a report, or do a slideshow, or make a poster, or draw pictures, or do anything you like to make it how you like it.


You could include things like:
  • The country's capital
  • Picture of the flag
  • When did they become a country
  • The country motto
  • The country nickname
  • An interesting fact
  • A famous landmark
  • What is the climate
  • What kind of weather do they have?
  • What do they grow?
  • Show us where it is on a map
  • Someone famous that lived there or still lives there.
If you want to do a little more, you can bring something to share like a food from that country, or some display items if you know someone that has been there or something the country is known for doing like making clothes or plastic or anything else you can think of.

You will earn Vanguard money for being prepared!
