Egyptian Pyramid Project: Directions:
1. Find a partner you will be able to work well with. If you would rather work by yourself, you may.

(and be the same shape as) the pyramids that were built during Ancient Egyptian times.
3. Design your Egyptian pyramid to include:
a. a representation of a sarcophagus with an embalmed mummy b. The book of the dead -‐ a spell, special word, or prayer written in
hieroglyphs to help send the pharaoh to his afterlife. c. 3 or more features of an Egyptian pyramid (for example: hidden
entrances, burial chambers, temple, food, luxury goods to take to the afterlife, etc.)
d. Geography – the Sahara desert and the Nile River valley is present
4. Label the sarcophagus and all of the other features with clear and neat labels.
5. Write an essay with two or more paragraphs that explains: a. how you built your pyramid. b. the design of your sarcophagus, the spell you included, the features
of your pyramid and the geography of Ancient Egypt.
