QUESTION 1 (20)
Define the following concepts and explain how they apply to the Foundation
Phase.
1.1 Africanisation
Africanisation refers to the process of defining or interpreting African identity and
culture. It involves embracing African heritage and promoting African culture in
education (Learning Unit 2, p. 19).
In the Foundation Phase, Africanisation applies when teachers incorporate African
languages, indigenous stories, African values such as Ubuntu, and culturally relevant
examples into teaching. For example, a Grade 2 teacher may use African folktales
during literacy lessons or include African counting systems in Mathematics activities.
This promotes cultural identity and relevance in early learning. (MFP2601 Study Guide,
Learning Unit 2, p. 19; p. 51)
