Destination Ancient Egypt


We have closed the book on the first ancient civilization of the world, Mesopotamia. Now, we will be traveling west from Mesopotamia to another great civilization of the world: Ancient Egypt. As we explore and discover all this civilization has to offer, you will be amazed at what we will find. Pyramids, Mummification, gods/goddesses, pharaohs, Giza, Sphynx, the Nile River, Hieroglyphics, etc...The list goes on! As we begin our quest for Ancietn Egypt knowledge, we are going to start by scouring the internet for helpful websites that can aid in our never ending thirst for knowledge. For this Ancient Egypt introductory post, we will be searching for and gathering websites about ancient Egypt. We are looking for good, quality websites. Perhpas you want to simply search for "Ancient egypt" or perhaps you want to get specific and actually take a more focused approach like searching for "pyramids of egypt," or "King Tut" or "Nile River" or "Mummification" or any other topic you are interested in. At the end of the week, I will look through all the websites you have found and compile a list of only the best and form a Ancient Egypt Websites gadget on the side of Water for Sixth Grade. Perhaps your website will make the list!

Task: Search the internet by using google or bing to find good, quality, interesting websites about Ancient Egypt.
DUE: Friday, October 29th, 2010

Helpful Hints: websites ending in .gov, .edu, .net are usually the best, most trusted.
Good Luck!
