Dollar Street - Compare how people live around the world

Dollar Street is an interactive website that lets you compare how different families live around the world. 

First, take the "quick tour" so you can understand how the site works. Then, explore the site. 




Create a new blog post in your Spanish Blog Portfolio, title it the same as this blog post, and answer 1-2 of the following questions in complete sentences based on this website.
  • Compare two families. What is their monthly income? Describe their home, their favorite possessions, etc. Then compare those two families to your own. 
  • Similar to what you see in this blog post, take screen shots of 3 different comparable aspects (pets, water outlets, next big thing they plan to buy, etc.) then include photos/descriptions of your own for these topics.
  • Explain in a paragraph what you have learned about how people live around the world.
  • Pick one country/family and write a paragraph describing how they live. Where are they from? What is their income? Describe 5 different searchable aspects of their lives. 
  • Pick one searchable aspect (pets, water outlets, next big thing they plan to buy, etc.) and explain 10 different photos of that particular aspect. Include the country and the income for each explanation.
