Class experience
US Grade 6 - 9

This course looks at locations at marvels over the course of human history. I used portions of these lectures in my college art history and art appreciation courses. In art history I (Prehistoric to Medieval) we begin with the 7 Wonders of the Ancient World introducing students to the amazing art to come.

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