WSG Live! Ancient Egypt

Welcome to Water for Sixth Grade Live! This is the first time we have had the opportunity to have a WSG Live! Event. This is a unique study tool that I provide for you. This is something that you have not experienced yet in your school life. I want you to study the night before the test. I want you to review the night before you take your ancient Egypt test. So, to help you, I am going to study with you. That is right, your teacher will be studying with you the night before the test. How this works: Tonight, on WSG, we will be having a live chat session. I will be sitting at my computer, asking you questions. Comment moderation will be turned off, so your comments will post automatically, turning WSG into instant messaging.  
 WSG Live! Ancient Egypt: 8:00-8:30

If you participate in WSG Live!, your name will be entered into the drawing for the new Survival Bracelet giveaway.
