Subject(s) Grade/Course Unit of Study Unit Title Pacing WS/FCS Unit Planning Organizer Social Studies 9th Grade Ancient Civilizations (2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.8, 2.9) Unit 2: Sun Rise, Sun Set 5 days (block) • • • Conceptual Lenses Civilization Technology Trade Unit Overview Points of focus in this unit include the influence of geography on early civilizations, settlement patterns, trade networks, systems of government and law and societal structure and gender roles. Students will develop a understanding of: • • • • Geography Shapes Settlement Patterns: Early civilizations develop along river valleys. Development of Complex Institutions: Cultural beliefs and values influence the development of government and law. Advanced Technology: metal working, water control and engineering Economic Organization: Sedentary agriculture and technological innovations lead to a division of labor, specialization, trade and the rise of cities. Unit Enduring Understanding(s) 1. Civilizations often emerge along river valleys which supports agriculture. 2. Values and beliefs influence the development of governments and laws. 3. Societies often create and implement technology to manage the environment. 4. Civilizations often develop social structures and trade patterns. Unit Essential Question(s) 1. How did geography shape settlement patterns? 2. How did the values and beliefs of ancient civilizations influence the development of government and laws? 3. How did new technology like metal working, water control and engineering impact society? 4. How did social structures and trade patterns influence the development of civilizations? Essential State Standards Priority Objectives Supporting Objectives WH.H.2.1 Compare how different geographic issues of the ancient period influenced settlement trading networks and the sustainability of various 1 ancient civilizations (e.g., flooding, fertile crescent, confluence, limited fertile lands, etc.). WH.H.2.2 Analyze the governments of ancient civilizations in terms of their development, structure and function within various societies (e.g., theocracy, democracy, oligarchy, tyranny, aristocracy, etc.). WH.H.2.3 Explain how codifying laws met the needs of ancient societies (e.g., Hammurabi, Draco, Justinian, Theodosius, etc.). WH.H.2.8 Compare the conditions, racial composition, and status of social classes, castes, and slaves in ancient societies and analyze changes in those elements. WH.H.2.9 Evaluate the achievements of ancient civilizations in terms of their enduring cultural impact. “Unpacked” Concepts (students need to know) WH.H.2.1 • different geographic issues • settlement trading networks • sustainability of various ancient civilizations “Unpacked” Skills (students need to be able to do) WH.H.2.1 Compare (the influence) COGNITION (RBT Level) WH.H.2.1 Understanding WH.H.2.2 • the government of ancient civilizations WH.H.2.2 Analyze (development, structure and function) WH.H.2.2 Analyzing WH.H.2.3 • codifying laws WH.H.2.3 Explain (meets needs) WH.H.2.3 Understanding WH.H.2.8 • societal conditions • racial composition • status of social classes, castes • changes in those elements WH.H.2.8 Compare (elements) Analyze (changes) WH.H.2.8 Understanding WH.H.2.9 Evaluate (impact) WH.H.2.9 Evaluating WH.H.2.9 • achievements of ancient civilizations enduring cultural impact 2 Standard(s) Unit “Chunking” & Enduring Understandings Suggested Lesson Essential Questions Possible Factual Content (Bold Found in Standards) Example(s) From Unpacked Standard How did geography shape settlement patterns? • Fertile Crescent / Mesopotamia • Indus River • Egypt • China • Irrigation Topography, climate and natural resources of a region influence the culture, economy and lifestyle of its inhabitants. How does the structure and function of a civilization’s government reflect its values and beliefs? • Theocracy • Aristocracy • Polytheism WH.H.2.1 Compare how different geographic issues of the ancient period influenced settlement trading networks and the sustainability of various ancient civilizations. Geography Shapes Settlement Patterns Civilizations often emerge along river valleys which support early agriculture. WH.H.2.2 Analyze the governments of ancient civilizations in terms of their development, structure and function within various societies. WH.H.2.3 Explain how codifying laws Development of Complex Institutions Cultural values and beliefs influence the development of government and law. Why are codifying laws necessary in a civilization? • Hammurabi • Law Code Culture and society shape and change how a government is organized and carries out responsibilities. Written codes of law establish legal rules and regulations that govern a society as well as inform those in the society of acceptable and 3 met the needs of ancient societies.

HISTORY GEOGRAPHY Place Regions Natural Resources Settlement Agriculture CIVICS & GOVERNMENT Politics Power Control ECONOMICS CULTURE Needs/Wants Scarcity Resources Trade Specialization Society Social Systems Trade Language Objective EXAMPLES • Key Vocabulary LO: SWBAT define and explain the terms laws, culture, religion, society, class, hierarchy, and trade. • Language Functions LO: SWBAT explain how political and religious institutions often emerge from the need to control resources • Language Skills LO: SWBAT read a passage about social hierarchy and identify the cause and effects of the social caste system. (Reading passages should be chosen/modified in accordance with the LEP students’ zone of proximal development). • Grammar and Language LO: SWBAT use comparatives in writing assignments (more than, less than, greater, shorter, longer, etc.) by comparing the quality of life for each group in the caste system. • Lesson Tasks LO: SWBAT read and summarize a passage about the caste system and explain this summary to a group. • Language Learning Strategy LO: SWBAT develop a cause/effect graphic organizer analyzing and identifying the causes and effects of the caste system. (The linguistic load will vary from LEP student to LEP student. Level 1-2 LEP students may need a word bank or other supplement to complete this activity using this strategy). 5 Historical Thinking and Geography Skill Resources “Straight Ahead” “Uphill” “Mountainous” Historical Thinking Geography Skills .
