Vikings: From Raids to Realms || Historical Adventure Camp

Is getting your learner excited about Vikings harder than steering a longship in a storm? In this three-day adventure, they’ll step into the boots of a 9th-century Viking, making strategic decisions in raids, alliances, and expansion.

Through a dynamic strategy simulation, learners will step into the shoes of 9th-century Norsemen, navigating the challenges of Viking life as raiders, traders, and explorers. They’ll uncover the secrets of Viking social structures, maritime innovations, and their far-reaching influence on history. Each day, learners will reflect on their decisions, gain deeper insights into the Viking Age, and, time permitting, wrap up with a fun and competitive Kahoot quiz to reinforce what they’ve learned.

From navigating stormy seas to trading treasures, this camp brings Viking history to life in an unforgettable way!

*Heads-Up: This Class is NOT a Spectator Sport!
This isn’t your typical sit-back-and-zone-out history class—your learner is part of the action! Whether we’re diving into simulations, debates, or critical-thinking challenges, their participation is what makes this class engaging, exciting, and, well… not just another lecture!

That said, if participation turns into radio silence, we’ll have to shift into a lecture-style format to ensure all key material is covered. But let’s be real—that’s way less fun.

So, encourage your learner to jump in, share their thoughts, make decisions, and engage! The more they put into this experience, the more they'll get out of it (and the less likely we are to drift into Lecture Land).

**Another Heads-Up: Punctuality Matters! 
This class runs on engagement and interaction, so arriving on time is key! While late arrivals are always welcome to jump in, we won’t be able to restart simulations or backtrack on missed activities—there’s just too much to cover.

To get the most out of the experience (and avoid feeling lost mid-simulation), being on time is strongly encouraged. Help your learner hit the ground running from the start—it makes for a smoother, more immersive class for everyone!
