Ziggurats

While learning about Mesopotamia this week we learned a new word "ziggurat" which is super fun to say! A ziggurat is a pyramid shaped temple made of mud bricks with stepped platforms. Stair cases went from platform to platform. The temple or shrine was located on the very top. The boys had fun creating them out of different size cardboard boxes.



Emmy just had to get in the pic!
