Objective: Assess knowledge of African geography including the locations of countries and capitals. Practice using secondary sources to gather and interpret information. Consider the six legacies of imperialism, determining the main ideas and reporting on new material.
Task: Before beginning the Africa map quiz, you will have a few minutes to review and ask questions. You will then clear your desks to take the Africa map quiz. When you have completed the quiz, please take out the Resistance, Nationalism and Independence Packet that we were working on yesterday. Continue to read the excepts in the packet and answer the comprehension and thinking questions as you go. When the whole class has finished the quiz, we will regroup to finish and review the end of the Nationalism packet. Next, we will get into six different groups to examine the legacies of imperialism in Africa. Within your group you will examine one of the six legacies of imperialism. You will first read the introduction and then the in depth information on the legacy you are assigned. You, as a group will determine the main idea of what you read and two supporting examples or ideas that reflect this main idea. You will have the option to use the computers to make a power point slide, as each group will then be "teaching" the class on what they determined. The rest of the class will take notes on the guided note sheet as their peers report on each of the legacies of european imperialism in Africa.
