ONLINE UNIT OF STUDY

Units are divided into three learning levels and are designed to be used by parents and students as a guide in their homeschooling program.

UNIT GOALS

Upon completing this unit, students will demonstrate understanding of the following:ย 

  • Ancient Mesopotamia (approximately 3200 BCE to 300 BCE) was one of the earliest known civilizations and was located between two rivers in what is now the countries of Iraq and Kuwait.
  • Ancient Mesopotamians used their location between two rivers to irrigate and grow plants for food. This food surplus allowed the people to build big cities and develop skills like writing and other crafts, and creating pots, jewelry, clothes, and art.
  • People of Mesopotamia built large temples to honor their Gods. Some of these structures still remain today and provide us with valuable insight into their culture.
  • A Mesopotamian king named Hammurabi created the earliest known written laws for people to follow. These laws, called Hammurabiโ€™s Code, enforced a legal system of expectations for behavior and the punishments in place for not following them.

    This unit was a great inspiration for us as a homeschool family who is always looking to deepen our curriculum experience. We did this unit over the summer and had so much fun coming up with recipes based on foods we learned that people ate in ancient Mesopotamia. This is a unit we highly recommended. Thanks Lighthouse!
