Objective: Identify and dispel misconceptions about Africa
Task: We will revisit the articles that you read over the weekend introducing the culture and history of Africa. You will get into groups with others who read the same article to review main ideas and to discuss the answers to the reading check questions. Next, you'll pair up with a student who has read the other article. As partners, you'll fill out a Venn Diagram to organize and summarize the similarities and differences of the two articles. Then, as a whole class, we'll review the articles and the Venn diagram. With the remainder of class we will watch the video "What do We Know About Africa."
