About this resource

What's inside this resource

If your history students are studying ancient civilizations, this is a great resource that will help students organize their thoughts, take notes, and review their learning in engaging ways.

This is a Peoples of the Fertile Crescents Sort. This was designed for your high school history students. It is a 1-page resource that is composed of a graphic organizer for students to complete. This is a digital resource that can easily be accessed in Google Slides or Microsoft PowerPoint. If you access it through Google Slides, you can assign it to students’ classrooms for them to complete on their devices. You may also choose to project it onto your smartboard and have it completed as a whole group. Another alternative would be to project it onto your smartboard and have students write their answers on notebook paper independently. Then you could go over the answers as a whole group and students can check their work.

There are 6 different early civilizations included:

--Assyrians

--Lydians

--Hittites

--Babylonians

--Sumerians

--Phoenicians

Students will write the correct fact in the correct empire. A word bank is included at the bottom.

I hope you enjoy!
