Read and translate the text. History of education
As long as we live we continue to learn, and the education we receive when we are young helps us to continue learning. We are taught to read and write, and are taught many of the essential facts about the world and are shown how to sort them out so that later in life, we shall be able to find out things ourselves and not to ask other people.
The first teachers were fathers and mothers, but very early in the history of man children began to be taught by people other than their parents. It is thought that schools first started in Egypt 5,000 to 6,000 years ago, and that it was the invention of writing, which made them necessary.
Reading and writing were quite different from the skills used in everyday life, and writing made it possible to store up knowledge, which grew with each generation. Specially trained people were needed to teach it.
