Today during IDL time, we learned some words in Swahili. Swahili is an African language spoken by around 120 million people. We learned how to say;
Hello – Jambo
How are you? – Habari gani?
This week, we will be starting our new topic, ‘Africa; We are All Born Free.’
Please think about what you already know about Africa and what you would like to learn in advance of our lessons this week.
Attached is a copy of your topic homework which will allow you to find out more about Africa.
