Description
Class Experience
This class is unique, because it brings the students to the old world of Columbus, Magellan, Hudson, Marco Polo, Cook and many more explorers from the past. Students will be creating and mark down every single piece of land. The old maps made by famous artists are more obvious and have more pictures than symbols. That's why we will emphasize on drawing on a simple grid, instead of making a real map. That will include adding objects such as ships and boats, weird native animals and plants...
Students will explore their desire to be a part of this virtual world trip learning the the way how the sailors mark down every single piece of land discovered at the old times. They also will draw fancy objects to create their own style of maps.
