Let’s think about what an island is.
An island is a piece of land that is completely surrounded by water — like in the ocean, sea, or lake. It’s not connected to any bigger landmass (like a continent).
Now, look at the map of Africa. We need to find one place that fits this description: land with water all around it.
Look near the bottom right of the map — there’s a big green-colored landmass off the coast of Madagascar. Wait — actually, Madagascar itself is labeled on the map! And it’s surrounded by the Indian Ocean. That means Madagascar is an island.
Also, if you look further east, there are smaller islands like Mauritius and Seychelles — those are also islands. But since the question just asks for “an island,” we can pick any one.
Madagascar is the biggest and easiest to see on the map. So let’s choose that.
