For Monday, you will need to be ready to talk about the great forces at work in the world at the time of Columbus's voyage. Go to EDMODO (yes, 1st period, too, to get the "new" version) and pull of the How the Great Age of Exploration Began handout.
There are some short video clips below which I want you to see. On Monday we will talk about the three important events leading to the Age of Exploration - Decline of Feudalism and the Revival of Towns and Trade, The Crusades and Trade with the East, and the Renaissance.
Your task is to gather information from these videos and begin to fill in the handout. Don't worry about getting everything but be ready to discuss history you learned, okay?
Video #1 The Middle Ages (Feudal Europe) - what it was and how it began - information for all three areas on your handout.
Video #2 The World in 1400
Video #3 The Renaissance
Video #4 Trade with the Far East
Remember, if you have trouble with the videos, then log in as me.
