Just recently Mr. Wronko, his class and the students in Ghana had multiple video conferencing sessions at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Middle School in Asbury Park, New Jersey.

Mesopotamia Ghana session

The first session was on Mesopotamia.

At this point in time Mr. Wronko’s students and the students in Ghana were studying Ancient Mesopotamia. To enforce the learning experience, both sides gave each other an in-depth presentation.

Mr. Wronko’s students led by Brandon Cifuentes-Perez and the students in Ghana spoke about King Sargon, Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, the Sumerians, Cuneiform, the Old Babylonians, King Hammurabi, Hammurabi’s Code, King Nebuchadnezzar, and much more. Both sides during this session learned a lot and made learning about Ancient Mesopotamia an enriching experience.
