Our Topic Is: Maafa
In this project, your child will learn about Africa. They will explore present day African and then dive into the history of the continent. The project will have a particular focus on Benin, considering the kingdoms history and exploring their famous bronzes. It traces the development of the slave trade, investigating the triangular slave trade and thinking about the journeys they would have experienced. In addition, the children explore Britain’s role in the transatlantic slave trade, the causes and consequences of the European colonisation of Africa and the worldwide communities that make up the African diaspora.
