Ancient China
As students begin to investigate the dynastic rule of China lasting roughly 200 years, they will be assigned a dynasty in class to research extensively. The research consists of various online sources and text that amount to several accounts of the history, contributions, significance, global impact, rise and fall of their specific dynasty. Once they have researched in their groups and have a strong understanding about the unique elements that define their dynasty, they can research further, begin to develop a timeline, and start to create a poster-board that demonstrates what they have learned, what interested them and ultimately why the dynasty was important.
