Ancients Week 4

September 24, 2016/ Daniel Ezell

What a fun week! Here are some ideas to dig deeper into Sargon the Great & his daugther Enheduanna, the En-Priestess of Ur.

· Read The Story of the World, Chapter Five & complete the activities.

· We looked at the Moon Disk of Enheduanna. Try carving your own on a bar of soap.

· Practice writing the new Greek vocabulary words and pronouncing each letter sound.

· Learn about the Ziggurat of Ur dedicated to the moon god Nanna and build a model Ziggurat

· Practice drawing and/or labeling the Akkadian Empire on the map.

· Make a flip book of the phases of moon and/or log the moon in your science journal each evening with dates & sketches. Here's a fun flocabulary video and the NASA video we watched in class.

· Memorize all subjects orally or use for handwriting practice and illustrate. Listen to the newly recorded versions of several memory work songs!
