CHECK kids and parents,
For those of you interested in additional resources - just in case the end of the school year isn't coming up quickly enough already - I pulled together a few pages that might be useful.
This outline map shows all of Kenya's coastlines, boarders, provinces, and major cities. (The answers can be found here.)
This site has a list of simple vocabulary words - Swahili is phonetic, and pronounced almost like Spanish, so faking it isn't hard to do. If you want more vocabulary and/or a more interactive learning program (or don't trust your invented pronunciations), this site has a free software download that works on a flashcard principle.
The Peace Corps has put together a game that addresses a range of common community challenges (water, malaria, education, etc) that is friendly to most ages, although younger students may need help with reading, as well as a lesson plan that deals with water accessibility in the US, Ghana, and Kenya, and a handbook that addresses cultural understanding (aimed at older students).
Have fun, and let me know if you find anything else online that you think out to be added to the list.
