Regions of Africa Research Project - Africa Geography & Culture - Google Digital Resources
This research project invites students to investigate the five regions of Africa. It is a project-based learning activity that focuses on the geography and cultures of the continent. Guided slides are provided to help you introduce and explain the project.
First, a research guide encourages students to identify and explain the unique geographical and cultural features of each region. Next, they will complete a design project by creating and displaying souvenirs from each African region. They can place their souvenirs on shelves, walls, furniture, and floors to decorate the bedroom templates.
Next, students write descriptions explaining what each displayed souvenir represents, including its connection to the region and its significance. A fill-in rubric is included to set clear expectations for students and simplify grading.
The unique bedroom designs created by students are always creative, thoughtful, and distinctive! Your purchase includes both print and interactive digital versions of the materials, making it suitable for traditional in-class learning or digital one-to-one classrooms. Everything needed for the project is included!
