Finally there's a delightful curriculum about Africa that does it justice--instead of lightly touching on the continent. Ann M. Jansen's GeoDeo Journey Into Africa curriculum is a multi-level unit study with a Christian perspective that is reasonably priced and has professional quality components.

You need this basic building block to use the GeoDeo Journey into Africa curriculum. It's also a helpful supplement to any geography curriculum.
"Contents include an overview of Africa and divides the continent into five regions. Journey through each region by visiting seven countries written as an adventure. Dig into African history to see how European countries influenced the continent. See Africa's beauty in over 550 photos and create a visual image of the continent with over 75 beautifully designed maps."

If you choose the GeoDeo Journey Into Africa Self-Guided Lesson Plans, then your student can work more independently while you will have the freedom to check the work as needed. The only additional materials needed besides the Journey Into Africa Resource Book and the lesson plans are a 3-ring binder and a notebook, though the Review Flash Cards are recommended. The self-guided lesson plans come in a shrink-wrapped set of sheets that are 3-hole punched to be put into a notebook of your choice. There are two sections: the student pages with the daily lesson and the activity sheets and the parent's pages with the lesson plans and answers. Subjects specifically covered in the self guided lesson plans include history, geography, science, and vocabulary.
The student portion of the lesson plans are reproducible "for the family only". Grade 7 and up, but can be used for K-12 |

The Journey Into Africa Rhythms Improvising CD is neat for learning about rhythms. There's information about getting free lesson plans to use with this CD. I listened to various samples and am off to get the free lesson plans for use with our sons who love drums! Again this CD was professionally recorded with high quality and the speaker/instructor' voice and the various music samples are pleasing to the ear. Good listening for drives in the car.
I'm listening to the Journey Into Africa Rhythms CD as I write this page, and I think children will have fun with the rhythm activities on it. No dull moments with this one! Our 16 year-old daughter just walked in to ask a question about the meal she's preparing and walked away clapping to the CD! That's a good sign.

These 240 Review Cards are a key element in helping students retain information learned in the GeoDeo Journey Into Africa™ Resource Book. The cards can be used as trivia questions with any African study or with games like baseball and Jeopardy.
You'll need something for storage once you open them as they are simply shrink wrapped. One idea is to use a sturdy re-sealable plastic bag or a small box with rubber bands around the cards.
