Creating Art to Represent Your Learning: Pre-Columbus through Columbus
Here are the instructions for your assignment. I can't wait to see what you create.
This is an example I created. As you can plainly hear I am not asking for great art, just a good time and some proof of learning.
Here are the lyrics:
Some Island That I Thought I Knew
I think of all the time I spent looking for you
I went to the kings of both Portugal and Spain
I even drew some maps
Read a bunch of Marco’s crap
But still I only thought I knew where I was going
I talked the Queen of Spain into giving me 3 ships
I hired some sailors to follow me to the end, all to the end
Even when things got really rough
I was sure we had the right stuff
We would stick it out until the voyage was over.
But you didn’t have to surprise me
You were really San Salvador and not the West Indies
and I never really did know
that the place I found was not what I was looking for
What about when I stooped so low
got on my knees and kissed your sand and made a fool of myself
I would never figure it out though
Now you’re just some island that I thought I knew
