Today in class we went over Ancient Egypt.  We talked about what was going to be on the test on Monday.  We learned about the Nile River and how their whole life was centered around it.  They depended on everything for it like for water, bathing, and crops.  They even had figured out when the river was going to flood and when the land was going to very fertile.  It flooded every year in July and it leaves behind rich, fertile soil in October.  This helped them figure out a calendar.  Learn some more tomorrow.
