Step into a world of ancient stories, powerful symbols, and timeless lessons! Middle and
high school students will travel to Ancient Egypt to explore pharaohs, pyramids, gods
and goddesses.
Through hands-on activities, creative storytelling, and group discussions, learners will
explore everything from daily life in ancient Egypt (including an Egyptian feast!) to
myths and the lessons hidden within them. Blending literature-based studies and unit
studies, students will explore ancient Egypt from a variety of angles.
By the end of the course, students will recognize major figures from Egyptian
mythology, understand key vocabulary relating to pyramids and pharaohs, and be able
to describe how ancient Egyptian pyramids were constructed and utilized.
This class will use as a foundation the book Pyramid by David Macaulay and students
will read selections during classtime. While homework in the traditional sense will not be
assigned, families may wish to purchase the book so students can read in its entirety.
