Debating Ancient Sumerian Society

This week we've been learning about the hierarchy of societal roles in Ancient Sumer. We discovered the King led society and was above Priests, the Upper Class, Lower Class and Slaves. This caused quite the stir amongst the class who were outraged that a King was considered more important than the people who actually went out and did all the work! With this in mind, an impromptu debate erupted - a perfect opportunity to practise our oracy skills. Check out some of the conversations and views in the video below!
