  1. The Idea of putting the sites on the blog is great. it is good to knok I don't have to wait the next day to get the assignments the next day. this will also make a lifesaver when someone is forgetting the site or assignments It could mean points they did not have without this. I can't wait to use this agaian, and again, and again.I thind the bbc site is better cause it is more interactive it helps you to realy understand everything there is from the gepgraphy and what purpose it serves and to the artifacts and where they get put into. The british musem is good though it talks alot more specific on their needs and belifes,I say they should put more things like the artifactsand there inventions that make a big difference in how they live they sould specify how much impact it made. They are both good they are information packed and very fun to read but my persoal favorite is the bbc.

  14. I found it interesting that the people of Mohenjo-Daro use drains, just like we use them today. They also wear necklaces, and play with dolls, and figurines like we do.

  19. The bbc site helps me understand ancient India better. I dont enjoy reading very much, this has a person talking,and moving so its like im watching tv but learing at the same time! It is very intersting to look at this site because in comparisan of us living now, ancient India is so much different. This ancient India unit sounds pretty fun to me!:)

  20. I really liked the tomb adventure game because it had a lot of important facts on Egypt. Like how there is a stone outside of the tomb were a mummy is buried and that it tells important things about the mummy. It also was very cool because it showed you some of the basic hyrogliphics. So when I played the person in the tomb was a priest. Also I learned that before the prist were two wooden dogs that are the gaurdens of the sarcophacus. I loved this game and I hope you will learn new things and love it as much as i do.

  31. Hi Mrs. Dodson I decided to get on the blog to play a few gams and so I think everyone should try the Mummy's Tomb because you have to figure out the code to get to the mummy's tomb. Everyone should really try it. It's so much fun!

  32. I like the bbc site because i think that the guy is funny and you learn alot. not only is it educational but i had fun on it which wanted me to continue playing and learning even more! i particularly like the part where its like your walking in ancient mohenjodaro. you get to see what the houses, sewage system, roads, well and more were like back then in mohenjodaro.
