Wow!  Are you ever smart!  Today, I have some pictures about different houses in Mexico.  When you travel around Mexico, you will see many different kinds of houses.  It’s very interesting.  In some of older cities, the houses are very near the street.  They don’t have much of a front or back yard.  That’s very different than our houses in the Untied States.

Some of these houses even have indoor gardens.

A lot of these houses also have roofs made of tile or tejas.

In modern cities, like Mexico City, people live in apartments, condos and houses like we do.  The houses even have a small front yard.  Here are some pictures I took when I was visiting.

In some places way out in the country, houses are made from adobe.  I have  a question for you now.  What exactly is adobe?  Would you believe that people have been using adobe to build houses for over 1000 years?

Adobe keeps houses warm in the winter and cool in the summer.  Would you like to live in an adobe house?

Well, that’s all for now.  Let me know what you find out about adobe.  I think you’ll be surprised.

Love,

Avery

My name is Avery Explorer and I like to travel around the world to learn about how people live in different places.  I heard that you were learning about Mexico and I heard that many of your classmates were actually born in Mexico.  How cool is that!  As you already know, Mexico is south of the United States.  Here are some pictures I took when I visited Mexico.  It’s a beautiful country!

    There are many beaches in Mexico. 

There are mountains are in Mexico.

There are rainforests in southern Mexico.

Now I have some questions for you.  You can answer them in the comment section.  Good luck on your research!

What bodies of water are on the east and west coasts of Mexico? 

What is the name of the mountains in Mexico?

I can’t wait to hear what you find out! 

Love,

Avery
