Presenting lessons proven on the firing line, creative teacher Mr. Donn and his circus dog Maxie show how to immerse students in learning ancient history and keep them coming back for more. Sections feature well-structured teachable plans supported by reproducibles, special lessons for the computer lab (with links and handouts), and additional lessons for substitute teachers. Units can be adapted for every learner. Activities include creative writing, mapwork, reading comprehension and vocabulary, arts and crafts, music and drama, simulations, discussion starters, critical thinking and higher-level skills, and unit culminations. Grades 6–8. Spiralbound. 8½" x 11". Social Studies School Service. Approximately 125 pages each. ©2004.
