This Week

Monday- We watched all of the groups present their Prezi projects in class and posted our prezi links to our wiki pages so that all class members can review and comment on each others projects. Every student should have a paragraph or two on their own page by their prezi link as to which group made the best argument for how governments in Africa could better deal with the AIDS crisis.

Tuesday- We saw the documentary Foul Water Fiery Serpent about the guinea worm problem in Africa. All students should have received a Governments of Africa Reveiw Sheet that they will need to have complete by Thursday.

Wednesday- We will work on our review sheets and Prezi posts ( link for the review sheet is also under the assginments link)

Thursday- We will go over the review sheets and play review games for Friday's test on the Governments of Africa

Friday - Test over the Governments of Africa.

AIDS Projects Begin!!

Tuesday and Wednesday-
On Tuesday and Wednesday we finished up learning about the different governmental structures in South Africa, Kenya, and the Sudan. We also viewed a promethean presentation on the Sudan region of Darfur.

Crisis in Darfur

We also finished up class yesterday breaking into our groups for our project on AIDS and learned a little about how the disease is crippling much of Sub Saharan Africa. We read a diary entry from a 13 year old AIDS orphan and began filling out our problem/solution handouts.

Thursday-
The groups continued answering their problem sheets to answer the question, What preventative measures are currently in place in Africa to deal with AIDS? What problems do you see with what the governments are currently doing?

Governments of Africa!

We have completed the history of Africa and are now beginning to learn about the governments of Kenya, South Africa, and Sudan.
