Bell Ringer!
• Define EXPLORATION
• What does this mean to us today? What is left to “explore”?
Age of Exploration Simulation
Find the GOLD!
You have been chosen….
• Today you and your team of explorers will represent your country in a quest for treasure!!!!
• Somewhere in the room is treasure and it is your job to find it.
• Once you find it, you must bring it back to your King or Queen ….or else risk beheading!!
How the Search for GOLD will work
Brainstorm: Appropriate behavior while searching the world (aka the room)
for gold ???
How the Search for GOLD will work
Before explorers are sent out, “Countries” must
first make a plan/strategy.
How the Search for GOLD will work
Explorers are only allowed to look for
treasure in one place and report back to their
“King” or “Queen” what they found - then they
can send the next group out to look another place
Countries Represented
Spain – 3 Explorers
Portugal – 2 Explorers
England – 2 Explorers
France – 1 Explorer

Native Americans
