__Egypt__

For my ancient Egypt report, I did women in ancient Egypt and an oral report. I worked hard on them both. I liked the unit except for the entire mummy part of it. I am NOT good with dead things, even if there are as small as spiders. I learned a lot and had fun doing the oral reports. I was also in Elizabeth's as Isis's sister and Isis's son, Horus. Here is a picture doing my oral report. Sorry it's sideways.

__Greece__
Studying Greece is one of the reasons for doing laurels. For Social Studies, we created our own city-state. A city-state is a city that acts like its own state. Mine is Selenia. The patron goddess is Selene, the moon. It is hanging outside of the 5S classroom. Here is the snapshot and myth of my city-state.

__//**Favorites of the year**//__ Social Studies was my favorite subject by far. I love learning about the past. My favorite ancient civilization was Greece. I know almost __ALL__ of the myths about heros and gods. I enjoyed reading the Odyssey and making it into a play and a puppet show. In the play I am Eurylochus and in the puppet show I am Circe and a sailor. I loved all of the ancient civilizations we studied. The only one I wasn't 100% loving was Egypt and only because of the mummies. I so don't do dead things.
