Mr. Leuzzi, Ms. Melissa and the grade 1/2 class 

were about to embark on a journey. Their 

journey was to begin in Brazil. 

Brazil is a country. This country is in the 

continent called South America.  

They quickly packed their suitcase and headed to the 

airport. At the airport, each person had to show their 

passport to the officer to get checked. The officer said " 

Please take out your passports. Don't forget everyone 

traveling to another country needs their passport."

After the officer checked all the passports, they entered the 

airplane to enjoy the 12 hour flight (Italy to Brazil).    

When the grade 1/2 class got out of the airport, they 

were amazed to be in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It was 

warm and humid.

Matthew remembered reading in the Atlas that Brazil 

is the largest country in South America and fifth 

largest worldwide.

Theo was excited because the class was going to be 

in Brazil for the FIFA World Cup . 

Lefteris said " I know the World Cup will be  

starting June 12th until July 13th, 2014". 

Nathalia said to Eva" I practiced speaking 

Portuguese because I heard that it is the 

official language in Brazil."

Savannah said "let's go explore to city".

As they were exploring, they decided to stop at 

a restaurant for lunch.

The restaurant was called Antiquarius. This 

restaurant has traditional portuguese food. 

Everyone took their seats at the restaurant 

and read the menu.

On the menu, they had:

“feijoada” - a bean stew with pork that is 

served with rice.

"Pão de Queijo", or cheese puff: It tastes 

particularly delicious when eaten just out of 

the oven.

Many types of meat

As they were walking, Simona was looking at the 

clothing people who live in Brazil wear.She saw young 

men wearing jeans and T-shirts. Colorful short skirts 

and dresses are very popular among women. 

All of a sudden, everyone started dancing in the 

streets. Brazil’s most popular and festive holiday is 

Carnival. In fact, many people consider Carnival one of 

the world’s biggest celebrations.Almost all of the music 

played during Rio Carnival is samba.
