Students will learn about ancient China’s geography, religion, achievements, politics, economy, and social structures during this fun activity. First, they’ll rotate around the classroom to find fact cards about ancient China. They’ll transfer critical information from the cards to their poster worksheets. Finally, they’ll glue their work together to make a doodle poster shaped like an ancient Chinese temple. Oh, and they’ll fill their posters with doodles as they complete 5 different doodle tasks as they learn. The doodle element of the poster makes this activity especially engaging. After students collect the facts and create their doodle poster, they can color in their work. As students color over their learning, they’ll have another opportunity to interact with the information. You might use this resource as an introduction to a unit on ancient China, or this works great as a review of the unit before a final assessment. This activity lends itself to a fun classroom display as well! The poster’s extra-long size makes it unique too!
