Continent ~ Africa [3] (Flags and Landmarks with Printable)

Friday, 22 February 2013

The last part of our Africa unit is learning about countries of Africa, the flags and famous landmarks.  Our map works can be found here and animal studies on this link.

NOTE:  All the flag cards used in this activity can be accessed from my Flags of Africa file. It contains the pin flags, nomenclature cards, flag cards for matching with landmarks and matching cards of country and capital for a price of 0.99cents (USD) only.

We started with pin flags.

We worked on the landmarks and match the country flag of its location.

I have a set of African Landmarks available for only 0.99cents (USD) and you can download it from here.  It contains 29 landmarks around Africa and includes a title card as well.

We also checked the landmarks in YouTube to see the ‘real thing’.

Matching country flag, name and capital was a little bit advanced so I selected a few of his favorite countries and worked on the matching activity.

And that concludes our Continent Study of Africa, and we’ll revisit this once again next year! Hoping that I was able to share something significant that could add up to your activities in the future.
