GEOGRAPHY OF EGYPT PROJECT DUE FRIDAY!

What do we learn about?

Welcome to social studies! I am so excited to teach you about our past. We begin our journey with the Stone Age and work our way through Ancient

Mesopotamia, Egypt, India, China, Greece, and Rome. While learning about these different places during their ancient times, we will study their geography, influential people, and realize how they shaped our world today. Along with the civilizations, we will be learning about the 5 major world religions which are Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, & Islam.

Now, I know social studies can be boring, but I know you can find something that you will love hearing about during our lessons! TOGETHER, we can make this as fun as possible!

Extra Credit Assignment:

We are studying Ancient Egypt! For an extra 100,

please complete a replica of a landmark in Egypt.

This can be a pyramid, sphinx, temple, the Nile River, mummy tombs, mummy, etc. After creating our replica, you need to write a paragraph explaining what that object was used for. Good luck! I know they will look great!
