All aboard on this 10 week course! This class will use art to explore different Asian countries each week including China, Japan, India, Mongolia, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Russia, United Arab Emirates, Turkey, and Israel. Using slides, videos and discussions, students will discover the geographical and cultural attributes of each country. Learners will discover a countries location, flag, language, art, celebrations, food, community, clothing, flora and fauna. Learners will fill in and create a fun doodle note worksheet each week. They will use crayons or colored pencils to create a visual representation of the country they are exploring. Classes are designed for different learning styles; kinesthetic, auditory, and visual. Interaction between students is always encouraged. Learners will be encouraged to engage in conversation talking about each country and connecting to their own lives and what they know. Learners will develop an appreciation for traveling, foreign cultures, celebrations, and connect to a world outside their own. Students are always encouraged to be sensitive to others beliefs and cultures. My classes are created to be inclusive to all types of learners. This course is a fun introduction to world geography.
