Sample learning scenario A NAIROBI MARKET (Beginning) Sokoni Nairobi Beginning Swahili students prepare for an imaginary trip to a market in Nairobi to buy produce. Students read and discuss Lessons 12 and 13 in Hinnebusch & Mirza’s Kiswahili: Msingi wa Kusema, Kusoma, na Kuandika, through which they learn about the market, the kind of products sold there and the buying process. Students are assigned roles, with 1/3 of the students playing “sellers” and 2/3 playing “buyers.” Students do internet research on Swahili recipes. Each buyer chooses a few recipes to prepare and creates a shopping list. Each seller makes a list of what he or she will sell and the approximate prices in Kenyan shillings.

Sample learning scenario The teacher introduces and reviews relevant vocabulary and models typical market conversations, including greetings, bargaining, and counting. Samples of East African produce are brought to class for students to handle and taste. The classroom is then turned into a market, with students’ role playing these conversations and using photocopies of Kenyan shillings to make their purchases. At the end of the activity, each student reports on what he or she bought or sold and how much money he or she spent or made.

Sample learning scenarion Reflection 1.1 Students role play the market scene and interact in Swahili. 1.2 Students read two Swahili documents on markets before beginning the activity. 2.1 Students practice the culture of bargaining in seller-buyer relationships. 2.2 Students learn about Swahili food and Kenyan currency. 3.1 Students learn about currency and business practices.

Sample Learning Scenarios (TASK) Review sample learning scenarios from Swahili Standards manuscript How will you integrate these scenarios in your course syllabus? Group work: Develop your own scenarios - elementary, intermediate, and advanced
