Today in class, we did an activity where students had to analyze artifacts and connect them to different characteristics of civilization in ancient Sumer.  I know that sounds a little confusing, but overall the students did a good job today.  We didn’t finish the activity today, so we will continue with it tomorrow.  But students had to read and complete reading notes for sections 4-9 and identify which artifacts show evidence from that section.  Here are the reading notes and artifacts:

ch 5 reading notes

ch 5 placards

I plan to have the chapter 5 assessment next week Tuesday or Wednesday.

Grades for the chapter 4 assessment are on parent connect.

Extra Credit options:

I need  magazines for class on Friday.  If students bring in magazines, I will give them extra credit.  No more than 5 magazines per student.   They can be older magazines, because we will be cutting them up and using pictures.  So make sure  you don’t want them!
Magazines can be anything:  People, National Geographic, Sports illustrated, Time, Fashion magazines, car magazines, video games, Better Homes, etc…  BASICALLY ANYTHING SCHOOL APPROPRIATE!

Also, if students bring in boxes of tissue, I will give extra credit points.  2 boxes max per student, per card marking (3 points ec for each box).

Thank you
