Do you know where fortune cookies really come from?
Here’s a hint: it’s not China! This is just one of the many amazing fun facts your students will discover in this class.

Imagine this: every week, your students will dive into a brand-new country, uncovering fascinating truths, famous people, incredible inventions, unique customs, enchanting legends, and vibrant cultures. By the end of each session, they'll feel like true experts on the country we explored.

To make the learning even easier, I’ll provide a specially designed worksheet and study guide that highlights the key takeaways from the class.
But the adventure doesn’t stop there! Over time, your students will start connecting the dots between countries, noticing how the world fits together in unexpected and inspiring ways.

And here’s the really exciting part: your student will get involved in fun debates about the coolest inventions, tastiest foods, most fascinating animals, and more from each country.

Let’s turn learning into an unforgettable journey around the world!
