Description
Class Experience
I developed these material when I was teaching my own students about pirates. They occupy a fascinating place in my personal interests. I put them together so that others can learn about them, and enjoy my fascination with them as well. It helped cement how much fun learning about pirates can be. In fact, so many people are fascinated with them that there is an online game dedicated to letting you be a pirate! My students and I used these materials to prepare to attend the Pirates Dinner and Adventure in Los Angeles.
I will provide everything the students need to succeed in the course. Each week you will be provided with handouts that include reading and discussion questions and an activity. The link to the Google classroom is: w81424f
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
No live meetings, and maybe some time outside of class.
The class is meant to be fun and instructional. I offer it as a FLEX class so that students can go as in depth as they want about pirates, and still have fun. Or they can learn the basics and move on. The class assignments are meant to be fun ways of reviewing the material, and are walked through in class. They are not going to be required to spend a lot (really any) time out of class doing things.
