  2. SS7G1 The student will locate selected features of Africa.

  3. SS7G1 The student will locate selected features of Africa. Locate on a world and physical map:

  4. SS7G1 The student will locate selected features of Africa. • The Sahara Locate on a world and physical map:

  5. Sahara Desert SOUTH SUDAN

  6. Sahara • The Sahara is the world’s largest “hot” desert. • It is the second largest desert after Antarctica. • It covers Northern Africa, from the Red Sea to the Atlantic Ocean.

  7. SS7G1 The student will locate selected features of Africa. • The Sahara • Kalahari Desert Locate on a world and physical map:

  8. Kalahari Desert

  9. Kalahari Desert • The Kalahari is located in Southwestern Sub-Saharan Africa. • The area provides for excellent grazing, especially after rains. • Because parts of the Kalahari receive more than 10 inches of rain per year, much of it does not fit the definition of a desert.

  10. SS7G1 The student will locate selected features of Africa. • The Sahara • Kalahari Desert • Sahel Locate on a world and physical map:

  11. Sahel SOUTH SUDAN

  12. Sahel • The Sahel runs from the Red Sea to the Atlantic Ocean. • It separates North Africa’s Sahara Desert from a semi-arid savanna. • The Sahel is mostly covered with grasslands and savanna. • Many kingdoms, known as Sahelian Kingdoms, flourished here because it was an excellent trade route.

  13. SS7G1 The student will locate selected features of Africa. • The Sahara • Kalahari Desert • Sahel • Savanna Locate on a world and physical map:

  14. SOUTH SUDAN Savanna

  15. Savanna • A savanna is a tropical or semi-arid woodland area. About 4.5 million square miles of Africa are considered savanna. • In a savanna, the trees are typically very small and widely spaced. • Savannas are typically well-suited for grazing animals. In Africa, these include lions, elephants, giraffes, and zebras

  16. SS7G1 The student will locate selected features of Africa. • The Sahara • Kalahari Desert • Sahel • Savanna • Tropical rain forest Locate on a world and physical map:

  17. SOUTH SUDAN Tropical Rain Forest

  18. Tropical Rain Forest • The equatorial region of Africa has high temperatures year-round. • These areas typically have 50-60 inches of rain per year. • The rain forests suit animals such as chimpanzees, gorillas, hippos, and African gray parrots.

  19. SS7G1 The student will locate selected features of Africa. • The Sahara • Kalahari Desert • Sahel • Savanna • Tropical rain forest • Atlas Mountains Locate on a world and physical map:

  20. SOUTH SUDAN Atlas Mountains

It has almost 250 species of fish.
