Students went on a in virtual field trip to three different Empires – France, England, and Spain. They read information and examined images about rulers, government, exploration, military. In addition, each station had a Virtual Reality experience.
Spain: Age of Discovery—info on Spanish/Portuguese explorers who were funded by empires
England: The Death of the Mary Rose—museum of ship that sank – ship from the powerful British Navy
France: The Black Death, Bubonic plague that wrecked Europe and affected empire building
We also enjoyed an AR experience looking at “artifacts” of the Spanish Armada – like ships, canons, and swords.
Students had a great time experiencing being virtual explorers.
