A collection of projects on The Age of Exploration: Special Study, Christopher Columbus

A little video I filmed of the projects which my second year group, 2G created. Well done to you all. They are busying themselves in the coming weeks with their next series of special studies. Check out the blog to see how they displayed their understanding.

The Age of Exploration/Expansionism

Junior History teachers have been busy last term working with students on the Age of Exploration. We encourage an in depth study of an explorer during this time period. To engage our students we used differentiation by product. Students could produce their research in their preferred learning style. Students found this most enjoyable. Over the next few posts we will be sharing some of their creations.
