Remaining presentations
Dylan orally presented on a infamous Chinese explorer. He accounted for his upbringing and challenging life along with the many feats he achieved, including the massive boats he had constructed and routes of trade and exploration he mapped long before the Europeans. He shared some pictures with us as well.
Dietrich presented his book review about the early years of Genghis Khan. It sounds like quite an interesting book with lots of details of how Genghis Khan became the leader we know if him today.
Ben presented a Power Point presentation on Marco Polo. He had lots of information about the early years of his life and his long journey through Asia. It lead to a discussion of what a journey would be like for someone and how it might impact them.
Thank you guys, what great presentations!
