description: Prepare to step into the vast continent of Africa with your elementary students! Avoiding the usual stereotypes, these activities provide young students with a solid look at contemporary Africa. The lessons give them an understanding of the rich diversity found on the continent, including topics such as rural vs. urban life, diversity of languages, physical habitats, and independence of nations. The lessons fully integrate language arts (reading comprehension of non-fiction texts, vocabluary development, and expository writing) with geography skills, and meet national standards in both.
