Summer Learning Journey - Learning The Basics

For this activity, I had to learn the most basic things in Chile. I have to complete the sentences down below which are really basic things to know about Chile.

1. The name of the capital city is Santiago.
2. The population of the capital city is 5.128 million.
3. The languages most spoken is Spanish, Galician, Castilian, and Portuguese.
4. In January, the afternoons can be very hot with a temperature of 30 degrees Fahrenheit. 
5. Santiago is located on the south of Chile.

  1. Nicely done, Mishaan. You have completed this activity perfectly. I really like the way that you sourced the facts and then underlined the information that you had used to complete the sentences. I am sure that your teachers will be so pleased to see that you've been able to locate this information and complete your activity so neatly!

    I am also quite sure that they will be keen to learn about where you found this information. When we do research and we find information on a website or in a book, we need to be sure that we include a link to the source of the information in our work. If we don't include the link it looks like we came up with the information all by ourselves :)

    When you have a minute can you please go back and add a link to the source that you used for this activity? Perhaps it was Wikipedia? If so, please include the link to the Wikipedia site in your blog.

    Thanks, Mishaan!

    All the best,
    Rachel :)

  2. Hola Mishaan,

    Well done on completing another blog, this is some great fact hunting! I didn't know that they spoke so many other languages in Santiago, you might have your work cut out for you if you have to learn the local language. Good luck!

    Chile is located in the Southern Hemisphere just like New Zealand is, so at this time of year it can get pretty warm there too! I think you might have confused Fahrenheit with Celsius though, 30 degrees Celsius will be nice and hot, but 30 degrees Fahrenheit would be -1 degrees Celsius. I'd much rather the warm sunshine I reckon!

    Hopefully we get some of that warm weather here for our summer. It's been pretty wet and cold so far, so fingers crossed :-)

    Naku noa,
    Dan.
