Year 11 Ancient History

You are here

Our Year 11 Ancient History class have been making cuneiform tablets.

As they begin their studies in Ancient History, Mr Street’s Year 11 class have been learning about the earliest human societies, and the artefacts and evidence these civilisations have left behind. Students have been

investigating the writing and pictographic imagery used by the peoples of Mesopotamia and the Near East, and what information about the past these sources can reveal.  In doing so, they have been learning about cuneiform, and have created their own tablets to carry messages and information for students of the future Thomas Hassall.
