What educators are saying

I felt this resource was good to support the kids in mapping in chunks. It also gave them a good understanding of the challenges of travel on the silk road with the geography of the trip either by land or sea.
This activity was very engaging and gave a STEM feel to tracking down Marco Polo's route. I had the students use Play-Doh and pipe cleaners to make the worksheet more 3D.
