Saudi+Arabia-+Spencer&Ida

Saudi Arabia is the biggest country in the middle east. It covers 927,000 square miles.It has about 28.1 __million__ people living there.

Saudi Arabias main race is Arab. It Does have verry little other race. Saudi Arabia is alot like other countrys with its race.There are other races sutch as Muslim, jewish, ect.

Saudi Arabias main language is Aarabic. This is also the onle language spoken. Biggest country with the smallest variaty of language.

Saudi Arabia has more literate men than women by about 20%. Even though its the biggest country in the Middle East it is not number one with people that are literate. Mabey someday both men and women will be100% literate.

I noticed that your paragraphs are very short and a bit choppy, combinding some of your already exsiting paragraphs can help make it flow better. I would suggest that you add more comparisons to help your reader understand your work. I might consider adding your ideas and inferences about the country ( i don't see your thoughts). I don't see any pictures to go with your writing, make sure to add them to your piece to __back up__ your writing.I feel like you have some good facts, and with a bit more organization, and opinion you will have a very good piece of work to hand in.(Haley M.)

I was surprised that Saudi Arabia was not the most literate because they are the biggest country. I did notice that there were spelling mistakes and some parts of your paragraphs were confusing. I wanted to know more about the other races in Saudi Arabia. I feel as if you should have added a little but more detail to your essay. There is visual to identify who wrote what. There were no pictures to go with the writing, so I would not be able to identify and effective one. Since there are no pictures, I would not know if they would be confusing or not.

Saudi Arabia is bordered by Jordan,Iraq and Kuwait to the north, Quatar, UAE, and the Persian Gulf to the east, Yemen to the south and the Red Sea to the west. Saudi Arabia is 927,000 square miles and 28.1 million people live there.

The definition of GDP is the value of goods and services that a country produces per person. Our country's GDP is $19,__800__. Our country has a pretty high GDP per capita. There are only two countries that have a higher GDP and they are Kuwait and Israel. Kuwait's GDP is $55,000 and Israel's GDP is $26,600. It would be easy to live there because the country is wealthy.

Oil wealth is the amount of wealth per person that comes from a country's oil resources. Saudi Arabia's oil wealth is $4,796. Compared to other countries it's high because it is the second highest country in the Middle East after Kuwait. Kuwait's oil wealth is $15,247. The oil wealth is probably connected to the GDP because it's a lot of what Saudi Arabia makes their money on. "Iraq Oil Fields Prospering." // MCT Photos //.

Life expectancy is the average number of years members of a population are expected to live. Saudi Arabia's life expectancy is 77 years. This is the third highest life expectancy in the Middle East after Kuwait and Israel. Kuwait's life expectancy is 78 years and Israel's is 81 years. The high life expectancy is probably connected to their high GDP because the Saudi Arabian's have the money to pay for medicine to keep the them from dying of diseases.

Celina B Peer Feedback: I noticed that there are many spelling mistakes.I was confused with some of the sentences in the first paragraph. Some sound awkward. I would suggest that you read your piece over the paragraphs to find the small spelling mistakes.You do use text and color effecively, but the pictures are not shwoing up. It says 'missing image'. Im am not sure what pictures worked or not because I can not see them. But other than that great job.


 * After reading this thing I noticed it was great. I noticed that Saudi Arabia is very short-lived and most people there are Arabs. Um.. I see that some pictures here are missing, but I'm pretty sure their great. I also see that Saudi Arabia is very rich. I also see that Saudi Arabia is very large. Anyhow I think you did great and I am pretty sure the pictures are great, bye. **

**i was surprised that the life expectancy was 77 years CRAZY!** **I suggest that you check over your spelling and grammar .** **the pictures didn't show up so i think you should fix that but i'm sure** **the pictures would have matched the writing perfectly.** **i would challenge you to explain the subjects more but other then that great job ;)** **(Allison G)**
 * i noticed that the writing got a little messed up but that's ok. **

**I noticed how you added the info on Saudi Arabia after you told us all your info on the other stuff.I would suggest that you put a little more detail in the** **paragraphs.overall i understood the main idea of the paragraphs in the end. the pics arent there so try to get that** **fixed later.Great job!!!** **Eric.w**

After I read my feedback I made the following three changes: 1) I added more information about Saudi Arabia's data compared to other countries data. 2) In the life expectancy paragraph I changed the last sentence because it sounded awkward. 3) I fixed my pictures so you could see them.
