The Early Civilizations of AfricaThis workbook describes, in abbreviated form, the early history and culture of Nigeria, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Zaire (Congo), South Africa, Angola, and Chad.

The history passages in this workbook were selected to give the reader a sense of the time and place they report. While not comprising a comprehensive history, the topics will support and enlarge an ongoing study of other nations' histories.

Some passages contain original source material. Reading a journal entry, an eyewitness account, or an important letter can add an immediate dimension to the facts of history. Students might also do research to find posters, copies of famous works of art with historical themes, and magazine or newspaper pictures or photographs related to the time period or historical event being studied.

Reading comprehension is also addressed in this workbook. The last question at the end of all passages is open-ended. Some questions require an understanding of the passage. Others simply use the theme of the passage as the basis for an invitation to creative writing. If you would like your students to get more writing experience, the open-ended questions will work very well for this purpose.

Many of the multiple-choice questions simply require direct feedback of information given in the passage. Some, however, require some thought and analysis. These questions should help to identify which skills students need the most help.
