Here is an Animoto on Caribbean Architecture that I could easily adapt and use in my Latin America Unit. It also ties in with the 5 Themes of Geography: Human Environment Interaction, where people use natural resources from their region to build and heat their homes. The only change I would make to this, would be to supplement with calypso music which is native to the island of Dominca.
This is a great way to make geography more real to kids. You're totally right about the music for the video too...it doesn't seem appropriate for the video topic. Calypso music would make it much more authentic!
