Today Mr. Schick explained his weekend and absence during the past two days, one of which we didn't have class. His daughter was horribly sick so he told us the long story. Today we worked on our power points and pretty much finished them. We then watched a couple of power points.
Egypt was the first civilization to come up with a writing system called hieroglyphs. They had highly specialized workers that did the writing, numbering, and censuses. Hieroglyphs are basically symbols and letters. The huge Nile River also runs through Egypt. The Nile river made for good soil after the floods. People started to realize the spring floods and everything else, which made for better farming. This led to innovations in farming and other things. For instance they learned how irrigate the crops.
