Today In Class We.....

In class todayMr. Schick presented his prezi. It's supposed to be ten times better than a regular powerpoint. Here are the notes:

Geography
- Egyptian life was centered around the Nile River
○ Water for drinking, for irrigating, for bathing
○ Every July it floods
○ Every October it leaves behind rich soil
○ The delta is a broad, marshy triangular area of fertile silt
○ Managing the river required technological breakthroughs in irrigation
Pyramids
- The Great Sphinx of Giza
○ Built 2555- 2532BC
○ 4500 years ago
○ A recumbent lion with a human's body
○ Oldest monumental statue in the world
