When I discovered that this reading for this lesson originally came from the National Geographic Website, I thought a fun production activity for this lesson would be to have my students write comment on the Website. The students were given the top half of the paper first, and discussed with a partner, then they were given the bottom half of the paper and taken into the computer lab to write their comments.
If you look at the website (LINK HERE), all of the comments originating from Vietnam on September 18th are from my students.
