 * MY JOURNEY TO AFRICA **

 You have just won a trip to Africa

 1. Choose two countries each, from North Africa, West Africa, Central Africa, East Africa, and Southern Africa that you would like to visit. Color those countries on your map. Due to limited lab time, you are required to do only four regions. The fifth region is extra credit. I will not be assigning any homework during this time. **This IS your homework. You are expected to work on this at home. **

 2. Decide where you will visit in each of these countries. Label them on your map. You may choose to spend two days in one place in each country or visit two different places. Decide the  order you wish to visit these countries and draw your route.

 3. Complete the comparison chart on each country. Your textbook is an excellent source for  beginning your research.

 4. You will now keep a day by day journey. Begin on Day One with how you happened to win this trip. Are you going alone? With a friend or family member? A group? Write your diary in Word. Once it is edited, spell checked, etc., You may paste it into your wiki. Include at least one picture or video for each day of your visit.

 5. In each country you need to **include the Geography, Culture, History, and Economy of the country or the specific place you are visiting. ** You may "fit" them into your diary by stating you did a little research, read it in the newspaper, were told about it on a tour or from a native, etc. Some information such as geography and culture may be observable or experienced.

 6. You need to do a works cited section at the end of your journal. Be sure to keep track of your as you are researching. Use BibMe

 7. Please make a heading for each region and make the name of your country very visible.

 8. Each section will count as one assessment grade. That is four grades.
