Thank you for making this game! My students (6th grade) love to play games of any kind-they will appreciate the game play of this without realizing they're applying what they've learned. I'd like more thorough directions, but otherwise it's good!

What an excellent, active idea that allows students to "live" what they are learning. I admit, though, that I will be e-mailing for a bit more detailed instructions...I

Hey Annabelle,
As mentioned on the product page, you need Notebook software. It's downloadable for a free 30-day trial if you don't have a SmartBoard in your room. At the very least, you need a projector for it.

Hi Mr. Chapman,
I purchased your Mesopotamia game. Would you be able to give me a little more instruction... I'm not clear on how one group "wins" a war. Also, is the ultimate point to take all the city-states? When is the game over?
Thank you! (Sorry, I was never a great board-game player!!)

Ms. Wlazlo,
The "winning" the battle (I don't know if you meant that or the entire game) was just based on whichever team rolled the highest in that battle. Winning depends on you and your time frame--if the students can take all the city-states, that's great! I deliberately made it hard to do that though so there wouldn't be groups out for too long. I've never had students finish that way, though...usually I have to end it early and give the "win" to the team that has conquered the most city-states.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I'm a National Board Certified teacher, and in eight years of teaching I've worked with a diverse range of grades and students: 3rd-6th self-contained, middle and high school, GATE, special needs and ESL, and I currently teach English literature to Spanish students in Spain.
MY TEACHING STYLE
I use a variety of PowerPoints, writing & artistic activities, games, and partner/group/class discussions to keep my students engaged, and to better comprehend and think critically about literature and history. At the very least, I want my students to enjoy learning about the past and the power of language.
