Today in western civ we were told that we are the worst of three classes which is kind of depressing. The best part of class was when you announced who got a hundred on the quiz because I wasn't expecting to do so well.  Later we took notes about Egypt and learned about the Nile River. I learned that the area surrounding the Nile is all dessert, arid land, which is why Egyptian life was based around the river. We also talked about the flooding in July and how the people adapted, which I learned a lot about in 6th grade. While taking notes you showed us a video of the inside of a pyramid which was pretty cool because the inside actually had a lot of rooms and passageways.
