Objective: Identify and label countries, cities, bodies of water, and major geographic features of Sub-Saharan Africa. Identify and dispel misconceptions about Africa.
Task: When you come into class, please get out your homework and a piece of blank paper. Following a brief review of ethnocentrism, you'll create a K-W-L-S chart on which you'll identify what you "k"now about Sub-Saharan Africa and what you "w"ant to know about Africa.
After I've checked homework, we'll spend a few minutes discussing your existing knowledge of Africa. Then, we'll begin labeling our "master" map of Africa.
Finally, you'll fill in the "l"earned column of your chart while watching "What Do We Know About Africa?" Before leaving, please identify at least three items you "s"till want to know about Africa.
