Today the class worked in small groups to create timelines of selected periods in African history.  This activity is designed to introduce students to our new unit: Colonial Africa.  Students matched events with maps and titles, then shaded in the length of time that the period lasted.  In this class we will not focus on all of African history, but we will be learning about the European colonization of Africa and about the independence movements and current events resulting from these periods in history.

See me in tutorial to make-up the timeline.
