Ms. Brown's classes visited the Great Wall of China yesterday by using our ClassVR headsets. They learned that the wall was built over 2,000 years, is 13,000 miles long, and that the watch towers were to help protect them from enemies. They had a great time exploring the past. They were even able to experience what they would see if they visited the Great Wall today!
