Africa Word Wall with Activity Ideas Geography Culture Government

Interactive Word Walls are a fantastic addition to your classroom! Bright, colorful, and easy to decipher pictures help you introduce, reinforce, and review vocabulary words with each unit!

The visual clues are great for struggling readers, Special Education students, and English Language Learners in the classroom. This set features vocabulary for a world cultures / geography unit on Africa south of the Sahara.
