10X Homework Task 04/02/10

In today's lesson we watched a video that showed what life is like in Kanga Village on Mafia Island, Tanzania.
Your homework task is to use the information that you gathered to write a postcard about life in the village.
You should complete your work on the postcard template you were given, and you must include the following things:
  • A description of where the island is - use an atlas to help you
  • How you travel to the island - remember the runway scene from the video
  • What the capital city is and a description of what it is like
  • What a typical house looks like
  • How people make a living on the island
  • The different roles of men and women
  • The different types of transport & roads - describe what the 'main road' that we saw looks like
  • How are people cared for in terms of healing and medicine?
  • What education opportunities are available?
  • What people do in their spare time - remember about the girls only being allowed to play their ball games once they had been excused from their household duties
  • What tourist opportunites are available
  • How tourism is impacting on the island.

The deadline for this piece of work is: THURSDAY 11th FEBRUARY 2010
