This year, our 9th grade students learned about the conditions that were decisive in the formation of civilizations that emerged throughout history and in the evolution of human beings in social, political and cultural fields, in the sample of Ancient civilizations.
First of all, our students understood their geographical structures and the effects of geography on production styles in their Geography lessons. In history lessons, they witnessed the effects of geographical structure features on economic systems of states, how economic systems shape social classes and political structures. They saw the reflections of all these processes on their religious beliefs and legal systems. They understood the reasons for the differences of people living on Earth. With these differences, they thought about how the states would live in peace.
Our students had the opportunity to embody what they learned while learning for a whole year. They recognized an imaginary world prepared by our geography teacher on the three-dimensional topography maps they prepared. In their history lessons, they built their own civilization on this geography. In their ceramic lessons, they designed children’s toys by taking into account the characteristics of civilizations. In their painting classes, they painted images reflecting the different cultural characteristics of their civilization.
Civilizations on 6 planets, consisting of the civilizations created by our students, were exhibited in the C block of High School. We congratulate all our students for their hard work.
