The second book of the third series, Warriors: Power of Three #2: Dark River by Erin Hunter, brings readers more adventure and action as the clans fight each other for territory, food and shelter. Lionpaw Jaypaw and Hollypaw, grandchildren of the Thunderclan leader; Firestar has more mysteries waiting for them than they even know about. As they thrive as apprentices, they also find things that they wouldn’t expect waiting for them. Where would that lead them? To the underground tunnels, where Lionpaw meets Heatherpaw? Or way back to the mountains and the tribe cats? But as they find travel to the mountains, they may find answers and secrets they never expected.

Today in humanities, we did a simulation on Ancient Mesopotamia. We were split into 5 different groups, each team has different materials and we had to do a lot of different task (making laws, creating buildings and creating written language) we had to trade until we had the right materials to build the “top secret formula” (we weren’t told that whichever group makes it first, wins). During the activity, I didn’t just do one thing, I did a lots of different parts of different things, like how I did a part of the making laws but I also helped with the language. As a group, we divided the work load up by everybody not just doing one thing, but different things (only one person did the trading). I think that our biggest accomplishment as a civilization was how we finally got the spoon, because that was one of two things (the other one was tape) that we were missing to make the “top secret formula”.

Our weakest point as a civilization was that we weren’t really communicating much, and that most of the times, we were just working on our own. Also, our materials weren’t the best (although it was ok). If I could do this activity again, I would change our “natural” material basket and that I’ll try to communicate more with my teammates.

In humanities class, we were studying about ancient civilization, this is the video we made.ENJOY!!!
