Introduction to Explore Open Source documentaries from Link Media, featuring Ghana and Tanzania with footage of musicians followed by clips of animals in a safari.

Open Source documentary from Link Media.
The Explore team visits Tanzania in Southeast Africa, a country with a population of roughly 38 million people. Tanzania borders the Atlantic Ocean, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Zambia, Mozambique, Malawi, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Tanzania was founded in 1964 and incorporated two independent states of Tanganyika and Zanzibar. Tanzania declared war on Uganda in 1979 after Uganda attempted to annex one of its provinces, eventually prevailing and expelling Ugandan forces, leading to the downfall of Idi Amin.

The Explore team discovers Tanzania's Serengeti Plain, and takes a safari trip to visit the home of the famous "Blue Wildebeest" and numerous other wild animals. A wildebeest migration occurs annually in Tanzania, where the animals circle a large area in search of food and water and are often preyed upon by lions and other big cats.

Here Ben talks to passengers waiting on a ferry that has never left Kinshasa's port and soldiers extorting taxes from river traders under the nose of the UN.

This Listen and Respond resource is one of a range of resources relating to track 27 of the Saydisk 'Listen To This, KS3' world music recordings. It is suitable for use on first listening. The Active Listening points suggest specific (differentiated) things for pupils to listen out for as the music plays through.

Three further menu items show texts with missing words that users choose from a pop-up list of alternatives. A correct choice is signalled with a green highlight, so it is possible to learn basic background musical information through intelligent self-discovery. More detailed understanding and follow-up activities are available through other resources based on the same piece - please search the title of the track to find these.
