Learning Boxes
To deepen understanding of the cultures and histories of African societies, the African Studies Center at UNC-Chapel Hill offers classroom kits featuring sets of African-themed novels for student reading. These are available free of charge to N.C. teachers, and the African Studies Center will pay the shipping costs in both directions. Kits are focused on Egypt, South Africa, Kenya, and Timbuktu.
Each kit includes:
- A Class Set of 30 Books
- Background on the Novel’s Setting and Theme
- Student Reading Guides
