Hieroglyphics Handout

The Hieroglyphics Handout is a pretty extensive breakdown of Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphics.  Unfortunately, I do not know where it came from and this copy is not the best.  But it is so detailed!  I wanted to include it on the blog.

Ancient Egyptian Sarcophagus worksheet

I have been finding a bunch of old brainstorming worksheets, vocab pages, and other resources deep in the belly of my file cabinets.  Some of these are so old, the original file no longer exists...or is on 3.5 inch floppy!

This Ancient Egyptian Sarcophagus Worksheet was used to introduce a sculpture project and integrate with fourth graders study of Ancient Egypt.

Ancient Egyptian Canopic Jars Worksheet.

Integrating art with classroom studies is a fabulous way for students to make connections.  I used to love making Ancient Egyptian Canopic Jars with my third graders.  It was simply a matter of putting two pinch pots together for the body, and one upside down for the head.  Here is the worksheet I used to introduce these works of ancient art.  You will also need to supply the students with a page of hieroglyphics.  I found a nice one here. I apologize for not having the resource for my canopic image.
