I am doing a project with my students where they are going to pretend they received a package from another county. In this package there will be one item and a letter of explaination about it.
I just can't come up with simple items specific to certain countries.
Any ideas? For example: Mexico= Sombrero Russia= Shapka Scotland= Kilt Brazil= Sugar cane
Africa? France? Germany? Greece? Egypt?
Thanks
