This outstanding lesson on Medieval Ghana has been especially commissioned to help fill a much neglected part of the curriculum. For far too long the history of Africa has been relegated and ignored. This lesson looks at the rise and fall of Medieval Ghana and looks at how its model of government, natural resources, system of justice, trade, culture and economy helped it to become a powerful West African empire. The tasks and activities have been designed for a range of abilities and include recall questions, graphic organisers, support for an extended essay and a differentiated missing word activity.
When you purchase this resource you will be able to download a 26 slide PowerPoint Presentation which includes aims, objectives, starters, plenaries, tasks, activities, video links, information slides as well as historical sources on how Ghana became a powerful West African empire. You will also be able to download a three page Word Document which is designed to run along side the PowerPoint and includes both the information, tasks and activities. We have also uploaded both documents as PDFs, just in case you do no have access to Microsoft Office.
