In this unit pupils carry out a detailed study of Brazil as an example of a less economically developed country (LECD). They use their geographical skills to investigate Brazil's location, its distinctive character (regional differences) and the physical and human processes that shaped the country. They begin to learn how to evaluate a country's state of economic development and also consider important environmental issues within the context of sustainable development.
Many of the activities involve pupils in active learning. Numerous writing activities offer the opportunity for pupils to develop their literacy skills.
This unit is expected to take 12-20 hours.
