The Beginnings of European Colonialism

Agenda 10/9:

1. Students completed a graphic organizer comparing the Igbo, Hausa-Fulani, and Yoruba cultures of pre-colonial Nigeria. After they wrote two similarities and two differences in their logbooks.
2. Students read an article, The Coming of the Pink Cheeks, and answered reading questions in their logbooks. The article dealt with an African perspective on the affects of European colonialism on traditional customs and culture.

I will be gone the next B day, 10/11. Here is the agenda:

1. Students read about pre-colonial life in Central Africa and answer a series of questions.
2. Students interpret maps of the colonial period in Africa.
