In this class, students will be introduced to ancient fashion and makeup styles from a new civilization each day. They will be shown pictures with a discussion of colors, their sources, and other interesting facts. We also will discuss how we know what they wore in the past. If you have already taken some of these as a one-time class, I will refund you $12 for each class. You must let me know upon enrollment! Then you can choose to join us for that day or not during the camp! Then about for 20-25 minutes, students will be able to style their own ancient people with coloring pages or drawing freestyle! During this time, I will answer any and all questions they have about archaeology and the civilization of the day. If there are no questions, learners can socialize, help each other with ideas, and hear stories of the ancient world from Alexa. In the last 5-10 minutes, students will share their masterpieces and share why they chose their colors and styles. We will reflect on what we learned and ask any last-minute questions! Day 1: Ancient Mesopotamia Day 2: Ancient Rome Day 3: Ancient India Day 4: Ancient Egypt Day 5: Ancient China Camp Parts 1 & 2 can be taken in any order! Please note: AWE Teacher Jenny M will be teaching in Australian, Asian, African, and European timezones. Please message us if you have any questions! Her profile: https://outschool.com/teachers/Teacher-Jenny-M?usid=xQya1qjJ&signup=true&authTrigger=follow_teacher&follow=true&utm_campaign=share_leader_link Out of respect for these cultures, which still exist, I ask that you do not try out the makeup on yourself during our class time unless you have a connection to it yourself. Parents, please have a conversation about appropriation versus appreciation with your learner if you choose to try out the makeup outside of class time for educational purposes (:

We will discuss some history of oppression where needed in an age-appropriate way.
Supply List
I will provide some coloring pages, but parents are encouraged to look up others to print if their students don't like them. Please print at least one, or provide paper for them to draw on. Supply List: 1. Colored pencils/crayons/markers/etc. 2. Blank white paper 3. Coloring pages 4. A space to draw You can also purchase or google/print croquis (basically outlines of people that fashion designers use) at a low cost if desired. This is completely optional, but some students have used these in the past. Some students like to attempt the makeup of each civilization - this is totally fine by me as long as parents agree with the student ahead of time.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
