Ancient Egypt & WIL 1.2

We reviewed the questions presented over the previous two days, then read about the "Nile River: Then & Now" after which you identified the answers to the concluding questions.

I hope you can pick up the enthusiasm I have for history - it has always been fascinating and truly captivated my passion, which directly led to me becoming a teacher.  The beauty of history is that, while it already happened, we can always discover new information, perspectives, and artifacts....which can either reinforce or produce exciting new interpretations.

We ended class with another Crash Course (#4 Ancient Egypt).  We are RACING through 6000 years of history and we must follow a district-mandated sequence and pedagogy (style & substance) that only increases the hectic pacing.  Some of you have groaned at John Green...but stick wit hit.  He is GOOD and the information (content & delivery) will grow on you and make you understand things in a new (& better?) way.
