Houses are made of lots of different materials that are:

materials they are made of. So you won’t have to be worried about freezing in the winter or in cold temperatures.

Weather in Jamaica is usually scorching hot with lovely golden sand beaches that will make your feet jump up and down it’s so hot!

In the summer season there are hurricanes and windstorms.

It never goes under a warm 15 degrees.There sometimes is torrential rain that

goes on for quite a long time.

In Jamaica the children still have to wear school clothes like we do here.

To get into secondary school children have to pass an exam, some children pass the exam but can’t go to secondary school because they can’t afford it.

Like here they have different lessons and have some of their fantastic work put on displays.

In Jamaica they eat lots of different types of food, the most famous one is Jerk Chicken. The foods include:

• Coconuts & Sorrel• Ackee and Saltfish• Pepperpot Soup• Curried Goat• Cow Feet• Pig Ears• Pig Tails• Bammy Bread• Exotic Fruit

• Brownies• Water Parks• Basketball• Baseball• FootballAnd lots more fun things
