the Dominican Republic, its climate and crops. Students should be encouraged to look at the full maps
to carefully consider the location of the country in order to choose appropriate answers for gaps 2-4. No
options are provided for the final two gaps, as the images used in slide 6 and Worksheet Exercise 2 are
repeated here.
Clicking on each box will reveal the answer beneath it:
En República Dominicana hay un clima tropical. Hace calor y humedad, hay sol y hace mucho calor las condiciones perfectas para el cultivo de plátanos y de la caña de azúcar.
Once this part has been corrected, students should work together, drawing on their knowledge from Junior
Cycle Geography, and using their maps and the food/country combinations previously discussed to create
similar sentences.
Geography teacher tips:
Junior Cycle Geography students will have studied global climates. Senior Cycle students are required to
cover Regional Geography as an element of the Core Syllabus, so the activities used in this lesson can
help support this.
If time allows, the following extension activity can be used. Students swap around their prepared answers
and use them for running dictation. The following examples could be used to help support students who
don’t have the prior knowledge from Junior Cycle Geography or in order to complete this in less time:
