Sumer: Stories with Puppets and Base 6 math with Sumerian Counters

 We have really enjoyed using the activities in the Ancient Civilization History Pockets. We completed their section on Sumer including puppets to make stories.
Sumerian stories. I also presented them with this pouch... which was full of Sumerian counters.  We had lots of fun playing with them, thinking about base 6 instead of 10. 

Books:

  • Lugalbanda: the boy who got caught in a war, Kathy Henderson
