The Pack contains associated resources for the learning experience, typically in the form of articles and videos. There is a teacher Pack (with only teacher information) and a student Pack (which contains only student information). As a teacher, you can toggle between both to see everything.
Here are the teacher pack items for Reunification: Sui, Tang, and Song Dynasties:
Overview In this experience, students begin by viewing photos of the Grand Canal, a massive achievement of medieval China. Then they explore the Sui, Tang, and Song Dynasties. Next, they work in small groups to report on various aspects of ordinary life during ancient or medieval China. Finally, they read a primary source—a Tang emperor’s musings on what makes a good ruler—and give reasons why they agree or disagree with the author. Students will work together in small groups in scene 4. This experience contains a lot of content. You may choose to teach it over two sessions in order to spend adequate time on the various elements of the Sui, Tang, and Song Dynasties. Objectives
From 581 C.E. to 1279 C.E., three dynasties oversaw a period of progress that made China perhaps the most advanced civilization on Earth. In this experience, you’ll learn about the Sui, Tang, and Song Dynasties.
Objectives
Look at the image above. Now read a few facts:
Write words and short phrases to express your observations about the Grand Canal. To write more than one, separate them with a comma, like this: Rome, Paris
Discuss student responses. Tell students that the Grand Canal is only one example of the achievements that made Chinese civilization arguably more advanced than Europe during the Middle Ages. They’ll learn about more such achievements in this experience.
