Country Project!!! In our unit on the physical geography of Africa, we have learned many different things about the diversity in the physical nature of the continent. We have learned about the land, water, climate, vegetation, and natural resources of the continent. For the Chapter 10 assessment on the physical geography of Africa, you will be researching a country in Africa with two other people, and creating a Google Slides presentation on the country, which you will be presenting to your classmates. Learning Objective: Students will learn about a different country in Africa and apply the knowledge that they have learned throughout this unit in a Google Slides presentation on a specific country in Africa. Researching a country will allow students to better understand the diversity of African countries and the different things they have to offer.
