The Khan Academy page on The Silk Road explains the importance of this ancient trade route that connected the East and West. It describes how goods, ideas, cultures, and religions were shared across different regions. The page includes easy-to-understand text, maps, and pictures to make learning fun and clear. Teachers can use it to help students learn about how people from different places influenced each other in the past. Assign it as reading, or start a class discussion about early globalization.
In the Classroom
Create a classroom simulation where students act as traders along the Silk Road. Assign groups specific goods (ex., silk, spices, glass) and cities, and have them "trade" with each other, considering the challenges of travel, costs, and demand. Divide students into groups to design a mock museum exhibit about the Silk Road. Each group focuses on one aspect: trade goods, religions, technology, or geography. Use digital maps or printed maps to trace the routes of the Silk Road. Have students identify key cities, trade items, and geographical challenges. To enhance learning they can use an online tool such as Google My Maps, reviewed here.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
