The Bantu People of East Africa - Case study about migration

This resource has three parts:

1. A case study explaining all about the Bantu people of East Africa (the largest migration in history) and their migration patterns from sub-saharan Africa to the south. It goes into detail about the different reasons they were pushed away from their land.
2. A series of comprehension questions using the ERIC reading skills to further develop understanding.
3. A table where children can note down the political, environmental, social and economic reasons for their mass migration.

It is a fantastic resource to use when teaching KS2 Geogrpahy and Migration. I used it in a learning experience entitled ‘Why are people forced to flee’. It meets many of the KS2 Geography objectives while extending reading skills also.
