Objectives:  Identify and dispel misconceptions about Sub-Saharan Africa.

Task:   When you arrive to class, please get out your Africa map packet and your chapter 18, section 2 reading notes.  While I'm checking your homework, please pick up some colored pencils and a marker and get out ready to finish labeling your large Africa map.  We'll spend the next portion of class completing the southern and eastern portions of your map.  Next, we'll explore the status of Africa prior to 1850.  Finally, if time remains at the end of class, I'll return and we'll review your unit 1 test.
