The Nile River

We have been studying Ancient Egypt with the boys for our history.  I have learned many things that I have either forgotten or never learned at all.  We have watched many interesting videos through the History Channel, National Geographic and Animal Planet about this.  I have definitely found ways to incorporate these channels and the internet this year into our little classroom.  We have been studying the ocean animals and we watched one of the most beautiful 2 hour movie called Deep Blue.  We absolutely loved it!  It was amazing!  But today, we did a little project about the Nile River and the flooding of the Nile yearly.  We are going to flood our own little river once a week and watch the grass seed grow.  I will have to photograph the final result!  I hope those little seeds grow!
