Jambo (Wow.. so many countries speak Swahili!)

So far, Stephen has had to deal with a lot of obstacles. Where will the boys decide to go? There seem to be so many pros and cons for all the different places. Today we will discuss what we think is going to happen next.

DO NOW: Complete as a group. Have your recorder create a table that looks like this:
