Ancient Indian Summary

We are concluding our studies of Ancient India this week. Today students made an acrostic Poem with the word India going down the page. Then for each letter in India they wrote an interesting fact that they learned. The next step was to go to virtual keyboard.com and make the poem into a song in an "Ancient Indian" sound. Students recorded their songs and uploaded it to their Poem Page in the PowerPoint. Well done students!

Here is an example of a students poem:

From Faith:
India invented many different and useful things like the concept of zero and algebra,
Now we use the same technology as they did long ago,
Discovered that the earth revolved around the sun,
I think it would have been fun to live in ancient India because they did lots of trade,
Arryabhata was the leading mathematician of the Gupta Empire!
