Discover the Ancient World, Homeschool History and Art - Whole Year Curriculum
Class experience
US Grade 1 - 4
Each week we will travel to a different part of the ancient world, discover and discuss what was happening, and then complete a fun art project that goes along with our weekly theme. Learners will engage with the stories of the people of the ancient world through videos, discussion questions in the class room and games, including a step by step art project each week. Each week will be it’s own theme, and project: August: Nomadic tribes and cave painting Ancient Egypt: Upper and...
Students will have a deeper understanding of the ancient world, with a completed portfolio of art projects at the end of the session to help bring that understanding to life.
As a history major, I often found the raw material dry, especially if my professors or teaching assistants lacked enthusiam for the subject. But as I connected historical events to art and art history, it helped the dry facts come to life and play out in my mind like a movie. I hope this class makes that connection for my students, bringing rcolor and life to the events of our past.
Each art project can be accomplished using whatever art materials the learners have on hand. I will demonstrate using markers, crayons, colored pencils, watercolor paints, and waterproof markers such as a Sharpee.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
