Egypt
Although there were schools in the ancient Egypt, only few
children used to go to them. The girls were forbidden to go
to any school; they had to learn everything at home, from
their parents or from a slave that lived in the same house
with them. Only the richest girls knew to write or to read.
The most of the boys didn`t go to school too.
The rich boys
used to go to schools where they were trained to become
scribes.The scribes could write and read and since very few
people could write or read the hieroglyphics, the scribes
had good jobs as accountants or lawyers; the scribes helped
the rich men to keep their records, contracts and business. |

Without going to
school, the Egyptian children were learning many things. The
girls were learning to spin, to take care of the babies,
cows and goats, to harvest grain, to weed the fields and so
on.
The boys had to learn how to make some tools, to plant
and plow fields, to irrigate, or jobs like shoemaker,
butcher or weaver.
