Pictograms or Pictographs Syllabaries Alphabets Abugidas (Syllabic Alphabets) Abjads Abjads / Consonant alphabets Abjads, or consonant alphabets, represent consonants only, or consonants plus some vowels. Full vowel indication (vocalisation) can be added, usually by means of diacritics, but this is not usually done. Most of abjads, with the exception of Ugaritic, are written from right to left. Some scripts, such as Arabic, are used both as an abjad and as an alphabet. Links to Helpful Websites:

The focus will be what makes a civilization work, what is needed to make them work, and what can make them fall! This year will be done a little differently, but if you would like ideas you can look at projects done by earlier groups here and here. Below is the video we watched as a group and learned to take notes while listening. Morgan Freeman, our guide, is very please with our progress in learning to take effective notes. You can see more on note taking here.We have finished our Civilizations!
