About ancient egypt notes
GoConqr OriginalUsing Ancient Egypt notes
The notes offer both broad introductions and closer looks at particular topics. An Ancient Egypt note covers the Nile and its importance, making it a useful starting point for a general review. Another note, created from a mind map, introduces the pharaoh's power and religious beliefs.
For a closer look at rulers, the note on the reign of Amenhotep III covers religious policy and the temple of Amun at Luxor. The Amarna note focuses on religion, kingship and Akhetaten. Other notes cover social roles, warfare and mummification.
Plan a revision session
Read an overview first, then choose a more focused note on a topic you want to revisit. Make a short summary in your own words and check it against the note. If you want to see ideas laid out visually, switch to a mind map on the unit page; for a practice check, try a quiz there.
Choose a note and build a revision session around it.
