More Games Please?


            Today in Western Civilization class we got to learn how to build a pyramid! We went on to the BBC history website to learn about both what is needed to make a pyramid and how to make one. The most necessary things for building a pyramid are types of building material, good workers, ample food supply, and being close to the river for easy transportation and being able to easily get water. The hardest part of the game was trying to finish the passage going up the river and actually having enough people and food to build the pyramid. After tons of tries with my partner, Timmy Yantz, we finally finished building the pyramids. It took many trial and error experiments though, but we had both completed our pyramids in less than 25 years, according to the game of course. I had a lot of fun playing this game with Timmy and I hope Mr. Schick teaches like this more often.
