Schools: Egypt is a part of our Ancient Civilization Program and is a little different in that we do a couple of school visits. You will visit a variety of schools for a couple of hours learning about their system, and the importance of education in their culture.
Terrain: Lots of stairs and uneven terrain.
Our hope is you will have an experience where you should be able to find a nugget or two to bring back to your classroom, and maybe even a classroom connection.
