Overview:
My students have been studying ancient civilizations and their influence on history. During our study we took a close look at the achievements of the Chinese, the Greek, and the Romans. We realized that these three civilizations provided people with amazing inventions and languages. We used this knowledge to write our own version of the book Perfect Inventions Perfect World (2000) by Holly Springs Elementary. The students "invented" items to improve our world and named them with words of either Greek or Latin origin.
