- PDF
What educators are saying
Description
This lesson is a class favorite by far that has been completely remastered with new resources! It is academic, collaborative, and it looks fantastic hanging in your room! This great step by step lesson covers feudal Japan's military hierarchy.
Students create a life-size samurai in groups. They outline a student in the group and draw armor, a sword, and a helmet like a samurai would have worn. The lesson comes with an anatomy of a samurai reference sheet for students to get ideas. In the background, students write the samurai codes (bushido) and a haiku about the Mongols they defeated which are both covered in a class reading. The lesson comes with:
▶️Printable Feudal Japan notes,
▶️A fantastic anticipatory set class reading with a worksheet
▶️A samurai class reading, covering Mongol's attacks and defeat
▶️Anatomy of a samurai handout,
▶️An examples sheet with step-by-step visuals
▶️A How-to-Haiku mini-lesson
This project is a blast for the students. We always vote for the best samurai and haikus at the end of class.
