Clare: How does world trade affect the US?
Elise: How do countries trade with each other?
Emily: How do countries trade with each other?

We'll keep you posted on how our projects are coming along!

Where our stuff came from

Hi my name is Emily. I put together a chart with information that we collected at home. My group and I looked at various items in our houses and found out where they were made. We put together the information and found that the majority of our items were made in China. USA and Mexico tied for second and England brought third.
I hope this project taught you a little more about the countries that lead world trade.

First Blog Ever!

Hi my name is Elise, and my friends Clare and Emily are working with me on a world trade project.
Today we have created our blog.
Yesterday we worked on maps of where some stuff we use daily came from.
We have realized that out of everything China has made the most stuff.
We are currently making a chart on a Google Docs on a school computer.
We are looking forward to learning more about world trade and how to handle blog spot.
Well thanks, have a nice day.
