Postcard Geography Album: Malaysia

This week we looked at Malaysia. One student completed the album page this week.

He located it on the continent map of Asia. He chose pink to color it in.

We talked about whether it was a hot or cold country by how close it was to the equator.

We also talked about the fact that Malaysia is made up of islands.

He then colored in a more detailed map of the area. We looked at Malaysian recipes so that we might try some and learned that they are very much a combination of Indian (curries) and Chinese (vegetable stir-fry) cuisines. Satay apparently got it's start their and spread to Thailand, where it became popular.
