In my room I love to travel the world and explore different cultures and artistic traditions with my kiddos. Recently we traveled to Egypt to explore the Egyptian pyramids and ancient hieroglyphics. My students had a pretty fun time with it.
We started off by learning about the hieroglyphic alphabet and how to spell our names. I did this with all of my grade levels and modified it for different ages. I only teach kindergarten, first, and second grade right now so it lets me really focus in on early elementary ages. My first and second graders then took their new hieroglyphic skills to some clay and crafted cartouches!
Check out their amazing work.
