Egyptian Research Project
One of your research projects this unit is going to be writing a essay researching a
topic about Ancient Egypt. I have given you some websites to get you started. You are
welcome to use books, TV, magazine, and the Internet or any other use resource that is
useful in getting the information that you need. You will produce a research report on
your topic that is 1 – 3 pages or more and will include a cover page & a bibliography.
Here’s some internet sites to get you started…
