Egypt Rules! Hey have you ever been covered in salt and soaked in the sun? Well if you have then that’s bad for you but if you haven’t that’s a good thing because that’s what the Egyptians did to the mummies. They would mummify them! Ewe! I will tell you that I would hate it to be mummified because that also means they stick a bar up your nose and take out your brains. Does that sound fun to you? It doesn’t to me. So you can learn more about this if you read my paper. Pharaohs are very important to Egypt. They were so important because they were the rulers and they thought they were gods so all the Egyptians obeyed them. If an Egyptian didn’t obey the Pharaohs then they would either tortured them or they would kill them. Also they had pyramids, so when a pharaoh died they would get buried in there. Oh and they were buried with gold and jewels to protect them in the afterlife. The most important pharaohs were King Tut which became pharaoh when he was nine, Hatshepsut which she was the first women pharaoh and Menes which united lower and higher Egypt. Don’t go I still have more to come. The Nile River is one of the most important water sources in Egypt. It provides water and some food for the Egyptians. One thing that was kind of good and kind of bad was that it flooded. Do you want the bad thing or the good thing first? I’ll give you the bad some people didn’t know when it was coming and they died and it destroyed some houses, and the good thing was that the farmers knew when it was and they opened up canals so it would give his crops water. Oh and here is a fact, the Nile River runs over 4,000 miles long. Now lets row our way over to Mummification. Mummification was very popular in Egypt. First they would stick a bar up your nose and pull your brains out. Next they would take out your organs and store them in jars. Then they would cover you in salt and soak you in the sun for about to weeks. Finally they wrap you in cloth and stick you in your coffin. It is kind of nasty, I know but that’s what they did. Did you like it? Huh did you? I bet you did because I’m the best writer in the world. Just Kidding! But you better of liked it because I worked hard on it. I studied so hard in class with this. Another thing, if you liked it then you could ask your teacher if you could do a couple of these activities that I’m about to list.  ·  Have your name tag be in hieroglyphics  ·  Your teacher could find the 3-D pyramids  ·  Mummify a chicken  ·  Last but not least Mummify online But wait if you want to do this at home make sure you ask your parents if you can get on so you’re safe. Thanks for listening.
