Ancient History: Build Your Empire!
Funded Oct 13, 2020Thank you for the donation to the classroom this school year. This is my first year teaching 6th Grade, which is Early World History. With your donations, I have been able to prepare my classroom, hanging flags from each of the countries that we discuss during the school year: Iraq, Egypt, India, China, Mexico, Greece, and Rome. Additionally, I was able to purchase 15 puzzles. We have only been face to face with students this school year 7 short days. During those days, students were able to use the puzzles for fast finishers and to play with before school or during bus call. Students enjoyed learning about the countries geography prior to learning more about that country during the school year. Now that we are online, I have included an enrichment resource that is similar: online seterra, which will be used to hone their geography skills.
Students loved seeing the flags and that they represented a giant time line (I hung them in order) of the units in the class. They also enjoyed playing the puzzles and getting a head up on their classmates in geography. I honestly can't wait to get back to school and share these resources again with my students. I am honored that you chose to donate to my class!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Bloomfield
