Six students took World Civilization I as an elective for NYACK credit this year. Together we explored ancient history and the foundations of civilizations. We also explored our ancient ancestry as far as we could – tracing roots back to Africa, Europe, Asia, and the Americas.
The second half of the year we focused on major changes in Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas. We studied exchanged of ideas and goods through migration and conflict. Throughout the year we took lunch trips getting a taste of various civilizations through their cuisine. We also watched modern movies portraying ancient times, such as 10,000 BC and Apocalypts.
