The Magical History Tour Unit 8
THE RENAISSANCE
“THE AGE OF DISCOVERY”
Sail with brave explorers like Magellan and Pizarro across vast oceans in search of new lands. Or stay in Europe and go to a masked ball at the castle of Queen Elizabeth. Read some Shakespeare, paint a portrait with one of the Renaissance masters, or help Copernicus figure out how the planets are moving in space. You have entered the age of discovery.
This 11 X 14” poster is a great visual reference to hang on your classroom wall. The Poster Pack also includes an 8½ X 11” black and white copy of the poster to print for each student.
