Class Experience
All Disney stories take place in a place far, far away, in a time long, long ago... yet, Disney leaves us many clues as to where and when these stories actually take place. The problem is... Disney does a very poor job of showing us the clothes of those places, never mind all of the other fun details that make up historical stories!

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