Charlie and I looked at a newspaper article exactly on point, demonstrating one of the five themes of geography - how humans and environment interact. The article was about ice core dating and the study of papyrus records to show how climate disasters in ancient Egypt affected and caused revolts and uprising - a great article to help him to understand this relationship. We read in our Human Geography textbook about why people migrate and looked to several maps showing migration. We discussed how that affects geography as well, and vice versa. Charlie participated in an interactive webquest about ancient China's Silk Road (a CPalms lesson) - Traveling the Silk Road. We watched a Crash Course video about the Silk Road and looked at several sources to act as a journalist for National Geographic. We learned about the different trade routes, imports and exports, the spread of Buddhism as well as disease - and the plague.
