The Land of the Pharaohs

Today in class we talked about Egypt and the Pharaohs. I really liked this part of our unit so far because i thoguht that this part is really interesting and i thought it was really cool. I like the story behind the Pharaohs and egypt. We talked a lot about how Egypt came about and the Nile river. Then we really strted getting into the Pharaohs and what there lives are about. Pharaohs are who the people thought was a god-king, they thought he could communicate to the gods to make life better is they declared him as king. The title of Pharaoh is almost like the Britains where it is handed down through family. Then we started getting into how they all had numerous wives and some of them were even sisters! But then Mr.Schick told us they were only for running parts of the palace they weren't used for any reproduction. That was for the non-related wives to do. Most Pharaohs had many children from different wives, then we kinda started to get off track and with about 5 minutes left Mr.Schick decided to end class and we just sat and talked the rest of the time we had.
