There are four main activities:
Reading:
Read the passages about geography, daily life, clothing, houses, religion, and government. Have students answer the comprehension questions, organizers, maps, and other activities for each section.
Character Studies:
Create a learning station for Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar. In a folder include biography passage and character mini-booklet with timeline dates. Students can complete the mini-booklets by writing three facts and cut-n-sort the timeline dates in the correct order. Then they can color, cut, and paste the mini-booklets inside their notebook or a lapbook.
*For the Archimedes, Hippocrates, Aristotle, and Pythagoras, I have included a shorter mini-booklet activity for students to write three facts because there are not enough dates and accurate information to do a whole timeline for them.
Vocabulary Activities:
Introduce the vocabulary words with the real-life photo posters included. You could post these posters around the classroom and have students travel around to match up and define the words in their flip flaps or use as a center activity. These posters are excellent to create an attractive bulletin board in a snap!
Tie it all Together:
Bring the students together for class discussions to check for understanding and further their critical thinking skills after each lesson. At the end of the unit come back to revisit the Anticipatory Questions to check and correct their answers. There are also several other activities including a map, a timeline, mystery flaps, flip book, quiz, brag tags, and a unit reflection.
