Discover Tanzania: A Book A Day (1 week study)

$5.00

*Note: This study is a companion study to Discover the Serengeti and Beyond. There is no overlap between the two.

Traveling around the country of Tanzania, this unit highlights the histories of Tanganyika, Zanzibar, the East African Slave Trade, and the formation of the country of Tanzania. You will read stories set on the shores of the African Great Lakes while learning about the geology of the Great Rift Valley.

The arts are alive and well in Tanzania, with the modern-day musical genre of Taarab and the Tingatinga art style. This study includes a listening list, art study, and art project, while highlighting two famous Tanzanians.

Don’t forget the culinary arts: Zanzibar Pizza is like no pizza you’ve ever seen! This delicious recipe was tested and given a 5-star rating by my kids.

Lastly, one cannot leave Tanzania without a nod to Jane Goodall’s scientific and conservationist projects with chimpanzees. Learn about her fascinating adventures through her own stories.

This 21-page study includes the mapwork and flag drawing to add to your Passport Book, as well as copywork, and science notebooking. The books are not included; however, six out of the nine recommended books are free to read at archive.org. These are noted and linked throughout the study. The information was carefully researched and all sources are included at the end to maintain a high level of scholarship and the utmost transparency. This is not a physical product; you will receive two digital PDF files to download: Discover Tanzania and a Passport Book with special insert for Tanzania.

Learn about the geography of different countries through literature. Written in an open-and-go format, this study uses multiple living picture books to learn about the country of Tanzania. Many of the books are written by own voices or people with strong ties to the country.

The books and activities are interdisciplinary, covering multiple subjects during the course of the study. In a manner similar to unit studies, different subjects are covered that all relate to Tanzania.

This geography curriculum is written as a non-biased, non-religious study. This gives families the flexibility to view it through the lens of their own religious worldviews as they see fit. Religions and religious beliefs of people in the country may be discussed.

Many of the activities follow a Charlotte Mason approach. These activities may include: living stories, copywork, map drawing, art study, science notebooking, and composer study.

Whether you read about Tanzania in the news or know someone from the country, my hope is that this study provides a cultural immersion for your students that they will always remember.
