Something Old, Something New

The old..... Ziggurats from Mesopotamia, and the new... blending it with technology using our netbooks....

A perfect combination...researching, constructing, and archiving.
Great job Champions of room A8!

Mesopotamia....

We are comparing and contrasting Paleolithic Era to the Mighty Mesopotamians. Did you know they invented writing in the form of Cuneiform?
Champions in room A8 created their own tablets as well:

Each one has a different story with a key to interpret what their symbols represented...



Well done Champions!
