Would You Survive History?
Interactive simulations that put students in the middle of ancient and medieval challenges. Every decision matters- can they survive the past?
Introducing: Would You Survive Simulations
Carefully Crafted for the Classroom:
The Would You Survive? series is a collection of interactive classroom activities that put students directly into history. Instead of reading about events, students live them through role-play and decision-making. Each simulation is designed to balance engagement with rigor, helping students connect to the past in meaningful ways.
- Each simulation is built around the key events, themes, and challenges teachers already cover in their units
- Scenarios are written to reflect real historical situations, reinforcing the content students are expected to learn
- Teachers can use them as a hook, a capstone, or a review activity without worrying about straying from the curriculum
- Students don’t just learn about history- they experience it while practicing the same skills your standards require
