An important article for middle level educators...

I came across yet another SPICE article from their digest that I thought would be of great interest to us middle level teachers out there. This article is written way above the readability of our students but could make a really supportive enrichment reading for ourselves. The article discusses the arts found along the Silk Road. Art is so hands on and full or expression and opportunity. What a unique way to educate about the Silk Road! We do not have to use spices and silks, but of the arts and we can incorporate making art and trading it with different classes of periods to model the methods of exchange practiced in the networks of trade.
