Hieroglyphics

Students are learning about early civilization in Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt.  Be sure to ask your child why is writing important to civilizations and what types of writing did these civilizations use?  Last week we explored cuneiform and wrote our initials in those symbols. This was very challenging for students as the symbols are extremely detailed.  This week we explored Hieroglyphics from Ancient Egypt and we wrote our names in Hieroglyphics
