Miss S. and Dragonfly at Bocha Chica,
a Dominican Republic beach!
The Dominican Republic is the eastern 1/2 of a large island. The western 1/2 is the country of Haiti. The weather is warm all year and hurricanes do occur in the months of July through October.
Since the weather is so warm and the land is surrounded by the sea, what types of foods, plants, and animals do you think grow in the Domincan Republic?
If you lived in the Dominican Republic, what type of clothing and house would keep you comfortable?
