Following Directions Activities {Sneaky FREEBIE}
I don't know what it is, but my kiddos have the hardest time reading directions and following them. Most of the time, they don't read the directions and end up doing the activity wrong. Tell me I'm not the only one?!?!
I remember a teacher I had in 4th grade gave us a "test." If you followed directions, you read the entire thing before starting some of the hilarious activities. Did I follow the directions? Of course not. I was "following directions," or so I thought. Until I reached the

Test Taking Strategies / Follow Directions Prank/Fake Quiz
This quiz is a fun and funny way to get students to realize they need to pay attention to directions.
There is a list of numerous steps to complete, which can actually be fun for students. HOWEVER, the first step says to "read all directions before continuing" and the last step says "only do..." so most students mess this up and do all the steps as they go along. Then you can give them the lesson at the end :)

Ancient history activities to try
Here are a few examples of the different types of activities and lessons you can find on TPT to help teach students about ancient history:
Map Making
With map-making activities you can not only teach students about ancient civilizations, but also incorporate geography into your lessons. As they label and color maps, students can learn about important places in ancient civilizations, chart trade routes, and learn how empires expanded (and fell) over time.
Primary Source Analysis
One of the best ways to learn about ancient civilizations is through the artifacts and writings of people from that particular period of time. Encourage students to analyze primary sources to gain a deeper understanding about bygone eras of history. For instance, you can have students read accounts of the destruction of Pompeii and discuss it as a class.
Centers & Stations
Through the use of centers, students can collaborate and discuss topics and content they examine for each era in history. For example, you can have students navigate through four or five different centers or stations to help them learn about different aspects of Ancient Chinese culture, like literature, geography, government, and major historical events or achievements.
By making ancient history come to life through a variety of interactive and immersive activities, teachers can help students develop a deeper appreciation for the subject.
