Argentina reaffirms its rights of sovereignty over the Malvinas, Georgias y Sandwich del Sur and the surrounding maritime areas. As Argentinians we recognise the sacrifice of our compatriots who fought and lost their lives that fateful 1982, though we fully support the peaceful settlement of differences and disputes.

As teachers we should endeavour to make history known to our students, help them see the importance of sovereignty  and independence, and most importantly the value of peace.

It is in this context that I propose an activity with three main objectives: recalling our recent and not so recent history, getting to know the islands and learning how to write articles on descriptions of places. 

Read the rubric and follow steps 1 to 3 before writing the article: 

You are asked to write a description of Islas Malvinas for an online magazine that your school is going to publish. Write your article including historical facts as well as descriptions of the place, its people and their culture.
