Description
This no-prep, game-based Mohenjo-Daro Simulation will be a highlight in your Ancient India unit! In this Mohenjo-Daro activity with printable and digital options, students will make decisions about how they wish to construct a city in the Indus Valley, with outcomes based upon what has been discovered at the ruins of Mohenjo-Daro!
Simulations can be such fun and meaningful activities, but they often take a lot of work and preparation to set up, which is why we did all of the work for you! You don't need to cut, purchase, or set-up anything to do this simulation, simply present the slideshow to your students and copy or share the handout with them.
This simulation features seven different rounds of competition. In each round, students must make a decision about a certain topic or roll the dice to see what they might have experienced during the time of Mohenjo-Daro and the Indus Valley Civilization. Students will also answer related trivia questions about Mohenjo-Daro! The seven rounds are:
- How will you design your city?
- What materials will you use to build your city?
- How will you adapt to the climate?
- How will you keep your city clean?
- How will you keep your city safe?
- How will you customize your city?
- What happens to your city during its construction?
The slides that facilitate the simulation are organized and take students step-by-step through the entire process. Throughout the simulation, students will calculate how many points they have earned. Finally, the slideshow ends with some optional discussion questions you can use at the end of the simulation.
This epic Ancient India Simulation includes the following components:
- Detailed Teacher Guide (PDF)
- Mohenjo-Daro Simulation Slideshow (Editable Google Slideshow with 47 slides)
