The First System of Writing – A FREE Reading Passage and Online Quiz

April 27, 2018 by Mike Leave a Comment

In The First System of Writing, students analyze author’s purpose while also learning about ancient Mesopotamian writing. Students will learn how and why cuneiform writing developed in Sumer, and will be asked to describe the impact of cuneiform on Sumerian civilization.

This is just one of six passages included in A Journey to Mesopotamia. Not only do all six passages include comprehension questions and an answer sheet, but they are also differentiated at three different levels of difficulty to accommodate the needs of all the learners in your class! By purchasing, you’ll be supporting me in creating more awesome social studies resources.

The passage has ten standards-aligned questions that will ask students to demonstrate their comprehension, think critically, and analyze sources. It is the last of a 6-part series on Mesopotamia
