Time Travelers: Ancient Egypt

Program Schedule: March 20- May 6

This class will meet weekly on Fridays from 3-4 p.m.

Recommended Ages: 5th grade+ (middle & high school)

Cost: $100

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.
