This lesson opens students’ eyes to the real economic engine of East Africa — from bustling markets and global exports to the rise of tourism and the importance of infrastructure. It’s energetic, relevant and rooted in the everyday lives of people across the region, helping KS3 learners understand how economies grow and why work looks different from place to place.

By the end of Lesson 4, students will be able to:
  • Identify the main industries in East Africa including agriculture, mining, services and tourism
  • Distinguish between formal and informal work using real examples from cities and rural areas
  • Understand how infrastructure supports trade such as roads, ports and digital networks
  • Evaluate the impact of tourism on people, places and the environment
What students will experience in the lesson
  • Purposeful in‑lesson tasks comparing industries and mapping economic hotspots
  • A clear, structured worksheet guiding students through formal vs informal work and trade routes
  • Engaging peer‑talk activities where learners debate whether tourism helps or harms East African communities
    Some visuals in this resource were made with AI to help bring ideas to life and support student understanding.
