As our Preview for Unit 2: European Exploration and Settlement, students participated in an activity called Blind Passage. In this activity, students would have to walk through a field of obstacles, blindfolded, in order to earn extra credit for their team.
After the activity, we compared what the students did with what early European explorers experienced in their search for new trade routes.
After the activity, we compared what the students experienced with what early European explorers went through while searching for new trade routes. We discussed their goals, challenges, risks vs. rewards, and the role that competition played.
