Display packaging of imported products. Have students note the use of different languages on packaging of products shipped around the world. Discuss the advantages to the producers of having text in various languages. Then have students use the world map to show where those languages are spoken. Suggest that students examine an almanac to learn what kind of information it provides about imports to the United States from Europe.
Students can make an oral or written report on the information they found in the almanac.
