Teaching Geography and life skills simultaneously

I am introducing my students to the Roman Empire, but I wanted to establish context and develop their geography skills. So I created a lesson in which students plan a vacation for themselves and their family to learn about Roman History. I linked a document I created on their CANVAS account and they will make their own personal copy to edit. They will submit their final itineraries on CANVAS as well. You could also have students create a powerpoint presentation and share their "vacation" with the class or create  a poster. 

The images (for their passport can be edited) so they put in their image and fill it out. The will include screenshots of their planned journey *google Maps, "buy" plane tickets online, plan where where and what they will eat, look up how to say simple phrases, Cultural "dos" and "don'ts" and key historical monuments or places that they will describe.
