CPWC Day 15 - Africa Map Review & Africa's History

Would you like to use your smartphone or tablet to help you study for maps?  Check out my "Apps for Maps" post for a list of FREE map review apps.

Objectives:  Identify and dispel misconceptions about Sub-Saharan Africa.  Examine select kingdoms and empires in Sub-Saharan Africa prior to 1850.

Task:   When you arrive to class, please get out your large Africa map and your chapter 18, section 3 reading notes.  While I'm checking your homework, please study your map in preparation for a map review game.  You'll spend the first portion of class completing a map hunt.  Then, we'll discuss and review your DBQ from yesterday to develop a characterization of Sub-Saharan Africa.
