STEM activities are an excellent way to get Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math all in at once in your homeschool. This STEM activity focuses on Ancient Mesopotamia, an ancient civilization who invented a system for growing crops. What is cool is that we still use this system today. This activity will enable kids to build small replicas of engineering systems so they can understand how they work.
