The week of September 21-24 we will be completing our Egyptian unit. We will learn more about the kingdoms of Egypt and their contributions to Egyptian society. We will be discussing the many contributions that the Egyptians brought to civilization.

The test will cover all the questions on the above Power Point, one essay question on Egyptian contributions, and you will have to identify where certain features of Egypt are on a blank map of Egypt. You also need to know the definitions to "dynasty" "Pharaoh" and "bureaucracy." So study hard, follow your Cornell Notes and you'll do well.
