In the past month or so, our grade was given an assignment to do on Egypt. We were put into groups and our groups were given two different characteristics of civilization. We then researched these characteristics (ancient and modern) in social studies class for a while. We then had to make exhibits for each one of these characteristics that were later part of an Egypt museum our grade made. While we researched in social studies class, we also made a museum survey in math that we had different grades throughout the school take and we read a book called “The Egypt Game” in language arts. I really enjoyed doing all of these, but I especially enjoyed researching in social studies and learning such cool things about Egypt! I was put into a group with Nicole Funkes, Noah VandenBrink, and Jay Shrouger. Our group was given the characteristics of ancient and modern religion and art. For our Exhibits we made an interactive game for the process of mummification, we had pictures of jewelry from ancient Egypt along with beads and string for people to make jewelry with, slide shows, posters, and much much more. For me, was also a lot of fun to make the exhibits. I learned tons from this project as well as had a lot of fun, it was a great experience.

Here are pictures of our exhibits for the Egypt museum:)
