I'd love to take this opportunity to show you around with Moon Knight. We're in a very different world. The world building is so complete and interesting, and it's hard to paint such a big canvas.

While you watch the show, you will learn about ancient Egypt. What was challenging is to do something that has a historical feeling, to stay in the world of ancient Egypt. We get to see these inner sanctums of ancient temples, all brought to life by Muhammad Diab, an Egyptian filmmaker who came in and really had a point of view with the story.

I put my heart and soul into this series. I loved basing everything on real Egyptian mythology.

All the names and roles of the gods, it has so much historical accuracy. We did research on how a tomb would look, how a sarcophagus would look. Every single texture and every single thing was so authentic. That's resonant through the entire series.

As an actor, it really keeps you in the world. Amazing thought has gone into creating this show, and I think it infuses everybody with wanting to bring their best.

Introduction to dividing by 2 digits

What we’re going to do in this video is start trying to divide by two-digit numbers. As we’ll see, this is a super important skill that a lot of the rest of mathematics will build off of. But it’s also interesting because it’s a bit of an art. So let’s ju…

Measuring lengths in different units

So I have the same green rectangle up here and down here, and what I want to do is measure its width. But we’re going to measure its width in two different ways. Up here, we’re going to measure its width in terms of how many of these paper clips wide the …
