Description

Students will first learn how to use the text features in an informational text including the table of contents and index. Then, students will be assigned an ancient civilization to study and, optionally, a partner or group to work with. Students will have an Ancient Civilizations Research Journal that they will use as a guide as they research about their ancient civilization, and their assigned person. Editable sections have been added to the research journals so you may add your own questions!
 
Once students have completed their research, they will use it to complete two culminating activities: a report/presentation and a model of an important structure from the ancient civilizations (examples: pyramid, parthenon). Students can use their creativity to create their model! Finally, other classes and parents will be invited to see their 3D models and what they’ve learned about their ancient civilization.

Contents:

  • Teacher Info Pages: This includes a sample unit outline, grading rubric, and lesson plans for internet research, intro lesson, research journals, and final projects.
  • Book research/ text features worksheets: Students will review other text features including: glossary, titles, headings, photos, captions, graphs/charts, and special print. They will also compare and contrast the table of contents and index.
  • Internet research worksheets: These worksheets will familiarize your students with how to find credible sources on the internet for research.
  • Ancient Civilization Cards Cards with the name and clip art of the ancient civilizations. You can use these to assign students a person to research. The following cards are included:
    • Ancient Egypt
    • Ancient Greece
    • Ancient Rome
    • Ancient China
    • Ancient Mesopotamia
    • Ancient Kush
    • Early Hebrews

    Excellent research focused unit. This unit has everything to help get the students started with their research and work through the project. Having these in Google Slides format is perfect so my students can research and create on their computer both in school and at home without losing their work.

    Excellent research focused packet on ancient civilizations. This packet has everything to help get the students started with their research and work through the project. I really like the different choices for format for the research journal. The half page format has really helped me save on paper.

    I cannot wait to use this project. It includes more than I dreamed of. There’s an invitation for parents to come in and view student work. It is so colorful and has a large and small project for differentiated assignments. Love it!!

    Uses a combination of drawing, dictating, and writing to compose informative/explanatory texts in which they name what they are writing about and supply some information about the topic.
