An extra credit option the students can do is to create a model of what a Sumerian city-state looked like. They can create a 3-d model using household or store bought materials. They can also use a computer program to create the city-state (see the videos in the previous post).
They city-state should include everything that we have talked about in class (e.g., irrigation system, walls, moats,farmland, ziggurat, King’s palace, houses, etc…).
There will not be a rubric on this, but basically all I am looking for is the work ethic. The more work students put in, the more extra credit points they will receive. I leave it to your imagination!!
Again, this is extra credit, so they don’t have to do this. However, it could be a great project for students to work on. I really look forward to seeing what students will come up with.
Deadline for this will be due before the week after Thanksgiving break, on December 5th
Thank you
