What do the British study about Brazil in their schools?

Question

England had a strong influence in Portugal, so in Brazil when it was not a Republic, and also after this.

Answer 1

It depends on the level at which one is studying. We might look at a whole continent like South America in Geography to study something like climatic variations, and of course Brazil would be included. Doing geography at GCSE level we'd study a country in more depth and look at things like movement of population and cultural influences, transport systems, imports and exports, etc, in order to compare and contrast it with other countries.

However, I am quite sure that there are people who manage to leave school without being able to find the country on a map at all, or know what its capital city is....

Answer 2

The only thing we covered about Brazil when I was at school (in the 70s) was basic ecology concerning the Rain Forest.
Sorry.

Answer 3

Mainly about the Rain Forests and stuff like that, but NOTHING about the real stuff that goes on there that's for sure, its not until you visit the country do you realise how much poverty and corruption of the government there is!

The couriers on the tours were very explicit about the corruption, the streets are filthy, whole families sleep rough, owning only the clothes they wear, flip flops are a status symbol for some, yet there are the VERY RICH, but they work for the government of course. They will rebel one day!!!

Answer 4

i think of no. Mas nós so estudamos a história deles porque eles são países ricos né? Por exemplo, você sabe a história da américa latina? Símon Bolívar? Não né? Mas nós estudamos tudo deles. ecu me lembro que pra fazer vestibular, até a unificação da Itália ecu estudei.

Answer 5

Coffee, Pele, Copa cabana beach, Thongs and G strings, Carnival,

Answer 6

british school teach about a lot of other countrys and its to give the children a wider range and knowedge of the world just like they do for r.e which in my opinion is a waste of time but my 12 yr old enjoys her r.e lessons

Answer 7

It has a GREAT deal to do with teaching the youngsters, of our Nation, about CONSERVATION, - rain forests, endangered species, etc., - because, WE, - like ALL Nations, - MUST help to PRESERVE these precious resources, for the SAKE of FUTURE generations!

Answer 8

i can remember studying rainfall in brazil (can't remember why or how much it was!)

we don't relly study other countries in much depth unless you go on to do geography a level

Answer 9

perhaps it's to with they have a lot of coffee in Brazil

Answer 10

I think they mainly do about the Amazon in geography.
