Descubra el mundo antiguo: historia y arte en el hogar: plan de estudios para todo el año

Each week we will travel to a different part of the ancient world, discover and discuss what was happening, and then complete a fun art project that goes along with our weekly theme. 

Learners will engage with the stories of the people of the ancient world through videos, discussion questions in the class room and games, including a step by step art project each week.
