Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

Today in class their chapter 5 assessments were due.  They needed to choose 7 modern artifacts of the 7 characteristics of civilization and write a sentence for each one stating how it relates to it.  The last page of the reading notes has the “processing” which gives all the information:

If they didn’t turn it in today they can turn it on Monday after break.

EXTRA CREDIT OPTION!
Students have the option of creating a Sumerian city-state model by either using a video game program (like Minecraft) or a 3D model.  Here are some of the instructions needed for the city-state:

As for now, please ignore the rubric, the grade of how much this is worth may change.  But the instructions on the top is what they need to follow (like putting signs around the city-state to show the 7 characteristics).

If they do it on the game of minecraft they will have to find a way to take a video touring the city-state and either bring the video to me, or upload it onto youtube and send it to me.  Here is an example that a student did last year:

They also may work with up to a group of 4 of any of my students or Mr. Blake’s students.
