Exploring Egyptian Pyramids!

Hi Parents!

To begin our lesson on Egypt, the students learned a little bit about the Pyramids. They even got to explore the Pyramids by looking at photographs online and Satellite images on Google Earth. They all really enjoyed seeing all the images. I apologize in advance if any of them ask you to visit Egypt!

After learning about the purpose of the Pyramids, the students constructed their own, using construction paper, tape, crayons, and the photos you sent in from home.

The autobiographies the students wrote in language arts will also be put into the Pyramids to truly personalize them.

The students and I decided to call them our autobiographical pyramids. Please be on the lookout for pictures of these pyramids that will soon be posted by your students onto their personal blogs.

Can't wait to visit our last country...Brazil!

Miss S.
