Genghis Khan Hero or Villain Activity Legacy Debate Video Guide

Students will watch a 5 minute video analyzing the two sides of Genghis Khan's legacy and answer 19 questions. They will then complete an extension task and determine for themselves whether they think he was more on the positive side or more of a villain. The answers are included where appropriate. The video is from TedEd.

Sample questions include: 
--Identify a connection between Genghis, Chinggis, and Temujin.
--Who/what did Genghis unite first, and then what did he turn them into?
--Where was he most geographically active?
--Why might the accounts of biological warfare not be wholly accurate?
--Write a motto/slogan to summarize the significance of the Silk Road at this time.
