The Nile Exit Slip

ELO #1 - I can analyze how the geography of the area shaped the early development of Mesopotamia.

Today. students worked as a class to solve the lateral thinking puzzle below.  Next, we reviewed the answers to the article questions about the Nile.  The brain break students participated in was pencil flipping.  Students transitioned to working on a map analysis document related to the Nile.  Finally, students completed an exit slip to review information from the week (exit slip questions are below)
