Sample Student Posting:
The textbook describes Mesopotamia as the "Cradle of Civilization." I think that is an odd description. It made me wonder exactly what they mean by "cradle."
Definitions of cradle
So, with those definitions,now I wonder what the book means by "Cradle of Civilization." Take a look at these sites:
Cradle of Civilization
Wikipedia Info
Iraq History
So, use all of this information. What features would an area need in order to give birth to and encourage the growth of a civilization?

- I’m excited to welcome our 7th graders to a year of explorations in world history. Our studies will range over many regions and periods of time, with a focus on the Egyptians and Medieval Period. My own history includes nine years of teaching grades 7 & 8. I have a Bachelors Degree in Middle School Social Studies & Math, a Masters Degree in Educational Leadership, and a Specialists Degree in Educational Technology, all through MIZZOU. I love spending time with family & friends, reading, watching movies, playing with my two yorkies, Triton & Ariel, and my toy poodle, Jasmine.
