Lessons from Africa: Third World Living Conditions
About This Primary Resource
This lesson plan will act as a starting point for discussions about the living conditions in third world countries. This resource includes instructions on how to make your own slum out of cardboard in the classroom and role-play exercises to help your pupils imagine what it would be like to live there.
This resource has been kindly shared with us by Lessons from Africa, which is the education programme run by the charity Send a Cow. For 25 years Send a Cow have been helping thousands of African families and orphans grow enough food to eat, sell their produce and develop small businesses that last.
If you would like to find out more about Send a Cow, or make a donation to the charity, then please have a look at their website: http://www.sendacow.org.uk/.
