Agriculture Around the World
This activity was designed so that you can simply print out and photocopy the activity and primary sources for your students. They can work on these in groups or individually as homework. You can give each group all five sources, or a different source per group. Have students elect a scribe (to record the group’s answers to the discussion questions on the activity worksheet) and a spokesperson (to share findings with the class as a whole). Once all five groups have presented their answers, discuss them with the entire class. How do their answers change from country to country? How is farming different today?
