My favorite part about Egypyt was how they mummified the pharaohs. It was interesting the way they took out the brain wth a hook through the nose. I would love to be in Egypt the way their lifestyle is. I would also like being rich like a pharaoh.

My favorite part was when we did the Egyptian rap. I don’t wish to be an Egyptian because of all that heavy lifting.

I liked studying about mummification and the symbols. It would be interesting to be a pharaoah…. and I wish we used the symbols that they used back in the day. We are taught today that when you are dead, they put you in a coffin and leave. In Egypt, they do all these steps and I thought that was interesting.

My favorite part of the Egyptian unit is learning about the way they lived and their religion. Also, how many kings they had.

I thought the Egyptian Unit was very interesting. I dont know what my favorite part was, since I’m practically obsessed with Egypt, but I do know one thing… I had fun learning about Egypt, and I wish I could have kept learning about it. Unfortunately, that’s not going to happen. I would of enjoyed being an Egyptian. Perhaps a noble or a priest. Even if I was a slave, being surrounded by all that sand, and seeing some of the most creative, and beautiful things man has ever built, that would be a very high honor to me. I may sound crazy, but it’s true.

My favorite part about the Egypt Unit was learning the mummification steps because I thought that was very interesting to honor their Pharaoh by burying him in the tomb that the slaves built.I would not want to live in Egypt because you wouldn’t live as long as we do today and I want to live my life as long as I can.

My favorite part was when we got to learn about the pyramids. I think it would be hard to survive in the desert and live by the Nile because of the nature. Yhe up side would be it would water the crops and give us food.

The Nubians and the Egyptians are allies at war. They’re allies because they trade with each other also. They are both polytheistic.

My favorite part was making the extra credit pyramid, and learning about mummification. I didn’t even study for the test and I got a 100. Then we got to do the clicker review and I only missed two things. Looking up the test questions was easy.

My favorite part of the Egyptian unit was to practice with your friends, and perform for the class. I would not like to be an Egyptian. If I had to be an Egyptian, I would probably be a Noble or Priest.
