  2. Pyramid Projects: Students will draw two social structure pyramids. One will be a review of Mesopotamia social structure, and one will be of Ancient Egypt social structure. Both of these are important, and it is crucial that students do not confuse the two. • Students will construct a pyramid using construction paper and markers.

  3. Be Persuasive • In English, you are learning about persuasive text. • For homework you will write two paragraphs about who you think was a better leader, Hatshepsut or Ramses II. • Write your paragraphs in a way that you will persuade, or convince, your reader that the ruler you chose is better than the other one. • Use your textbook and notes to find details!
