1 The Nile Valley Through the Eyes of Paankhenamum
2 The Story: The natural resources of the Nile River define Ancient Egypt. Early farming settlements arose around 5000 B.C. and the Egyptians organized life around the river s annual flooding. The Egyptians believed in many deities that were tied to nature. By about 31 BC Upper and Lower Egypt formed the first nation state in the world. New farming and writing methods marked Ancient Egypt s early period. Ancient Egyptian rulers built pyramids during the old kingdom. They acquired more territory during the middle kingdom, and during the New kingdom became the world s biggest power. Nubian culture began as early as 7000 B.C. along the upper Nile. The Egyptians conquered Northern Nubia in 2000 B.C. and other Nubians established the Kush kingdom in the south. In the 1600s BC the Kush kingdom flourished, but in the 1500s B.C. Egyptians ruled parts of Kush. Kushites ruled Egypt in the 700s and brought cultural changes. Context And Timeline: Teachers will teach this unit from the Walt Disney Magnet School.

7 Unit Lesson Plans Day 1 - Accessing Prior Knowledge About Egypt Using Artifacts Objectives: Use artifacts and primary sources to acquire information about early centers of civilizations Interpret information from visuals Procedures: "Pyramids of Giza" PowerPoint Slides of Google Images o Access prior knowledge by asking students what they know about early centers of civilizations beginning with northern Africa (Egypt). Record information on Pyramid shape graffiti board "Funeral Mask" - PowerPoint Slides of Funerary Mask from the Art Institute of Chicago o Ask students to examine the funeral mask and tell what they see. Point out that the mask if as example of the great wealth of early Egypt. "I go into my library, and all history unrolls before me... I see pyramids building; I hear the shouting of the armies..." (Alexander Smith, 1863) o Why do you think the author referred to the building of pyramids? (Because they are some of he most dramatic structures every built) Assessment: Class Discussion on accessing prior knowledge
8 Day 3 - Seeker of Knowledge The Man Who Deciphered Egyptian Hieroglyphics Objectives: Read a biography to find out about the person who deciphered Egyptian hieroglyphics in the 1800's. Discover unique features of the Egyptian writing system. Procedures: "Seeker of Knowledge - The Man Who Deciphered Egyptian Hieroglyphics", written and illustrated by James Rumford. Explain Historical scholars have combined hard work and intuition to unlock secrets of the Egyptian past. Share what students know about hieroglyphics Students will then read the story. o Which Hieroglyphic most resembles it's meaning? Summarize the Reading - Jean-Francios Champollion tried for years to decipher the Egyptian hieroglyphics on the Rosetta Stone by using his knowledge of other Egyptian language on the stone and of ancient Greek. When Champollion received a copy of pharaohs ' names in hieroglyphics he was able to connect the hieroglyphs to sounds and decipher the Rosetta Stone. Use Graphic Organizer to reach all learners - Main Character, Setting, Problem, Main Event, and Solution Assessment: Analyze Literature Questions What discovery did Jean-Francios Champollion make that helped him unlock the mystery of ancient Egyptian writing? (Discovered that the pictures represented sounds) How did scholars hope to decipher ancient Egyptian writing? (Since they could read ancient Greek, they hoped to use that language to decipher the hieroglyphics on the Rosetta Stone) Do you think it was important that scholars deciphered ancient Egyptian Writing? Why or Why not? (Possible answer; yes, because
9 it allowed people to learn about ancient Egyptians culture and history.)
10 Day Four Farming Along the Nile River Objective: Use thinking skills of observing and describing a painted scene of daily life along the Nile River in Ancient Egypt. Use thinking skills of questioning and investigating the conclude the importance of the Nile River on life in ancient Egypt. Procedures: Students will take approximately 5 minutes to close observe the scene of an Egyptian farmer plowing fields with the help of an ox. o Farming with the help of domesticated animals Students will Think-Pair-Share what the observed and describe it to his/her partner Think of questions that this piece brought about and share with partner. o Irrigation issues like dikes, reservoirs, canals carried over from the Fertile Crest Chapter and rain not being abundant and dependable in ancient Egypt o Focusing on the importance of the Nile River for this civilization Areas that could be investigated about this piece and share once again with partner o In what ways could the Nile River be used? - Source of water, transportation, and the deposit of fertile soil for farming Report out partner discussions with the class Assessment: Students evaluate the impact of the Nile River on the life of ancient Egypt The Nile served as a natural resource and defined ancient Egypt. Early farm settlements arose along the Nile River about 5000BC. Egyptians organized life around the river s annual flooding.
11 Day Five A Source of New Ideas and Religion Ancient Calendar Objective: Use the thinking skills of observing and describing the calendar of ancient Egypt to understand reason why a calendar was developed Use the thinking skills of questioning and investigating the problems with the Nile River and the importance of religion of ancient Egypt, and how they were tied to natural events like flooding. Procedures: Students will spend 5 minutes closely observing the piece without teacher revealing that the idea is a calendar and describe using only body movements of what the figures are doing in the Teacher will ask the guided questions: Who do you think the 4 female figures in red are? (Isis) Who do you think the 8 kneeling figures are? (Horus) What do you think this piece was used for in Ancient Egypt? (Answers will vary but may result in the worship of gods) Ask students what problems the Nile River caused and what the ancient Egyptians did as a result (excess flooding drowned people and livestock and ruined crops; occasionally the Nile did not flood, resulting in starvation. As a result Egyptians tried to predict when the Nile would flood) Why do you think the Egyptians developed a calendar? (Predict the flooding season) Assessment: The Egyptians believed in many deities, many tied to nature and this lead to the development of a calendar for the prediction of flooding seasons.
12 Day 6 The Seated Scribe Louvre Museum, Paris France Objective: Use the thinking skills of observing and describing of The Seated Scribe gives us insight on the importance of major achievements of Egypt s Early Period. Use the thinking skills of questioning and investigating of The Seated Scribe gives us insight on the importance of major achievements of Egypt s Early Period. Procedures: Teacher will continue with artifacts of the Seated Scribe movie constructed of pictures from the Louvre museum Teacher guided questions o What is a scribe? (Recorders of the words and brave deeds of their king) o What was his station in society? (Of importance but not notoriety) o If he weren t a pharaoh why would ancient Egyptians decide to create a statue of a scribe? (As a result of the importance of a scribe s station in life however wasn t the same as that of a king) o What were the materials a scribe would need? (Knowledge of hieroglyphics, papyrus reed soot mixed with water served as ink) o How are these materials different today? (We use paper today however graphite has replaced the need for soot and water, and hieroglyphics has been replaced with letters and words) Assessment: Social needs in ancient Egypt led to inventions like papyrus and the need for the specialized job of scribe to the king. The fact that The Seated Scribe was created serves as a symbol of the king s thought of importance of this person in ancient Egypt.
13 Day 7 The Rosetta Stone Objectives: Procedures: Students will view the film to help understand the steps it took in deciphering Egyptian hieroglyphics Assessment:
14 Art-Focused TEAM Lesson Day 2 - Mummy Case of Paankhenamum Inquiry Questions: What can we convey by examining artifacts such as the Mummy Case of Paankhenamum and the images painted on it? Is there any significance to what is painted? Objective: Students will be able to make observations of Paankhenamum Mummy Case and describes screens depict. Students will question the meaning of the symbols and investigate their meaning as archaeologists have determined. Procedures: Students will be reminded of the religious significance of previous civilizations studied and review how things in nature were often explained by many Gods. Brainstorm what they already know about the process of mummification and Ancient Egyptian burial practices. Students will be asked to view the Mummy Case of Paankhenamum at the Art Institute of Chicago Students will be asked to complete a 4-corners activity where teacher will direct what will be asked for each corner. o First corner (top left) is to make an observation of the mummy case. This would result in drawing and should focus on the head and torso of the case. For students finding this difficult ask them to write at least four things they observe about the mummy case. o Second corner (top right) is write a description of the of the mummy case. This should result in at least 4 statements describing the mummy case. o Third corner (bottom left) is to write at least four questions you have about the mummy case
15 o Fourth corner (bottom right) is to create four topics the student would like to investigate about the mummy case. These topics should result in topics including: Afterlife Ritual Mummification Process Egyptian Gods and other deities Tomb/Pyramids Building Etc anything unit appropriate would be acceptable Alternative Opening divide students into groups of 3 to have the cover the entire Mummy Case. This would have to be done before the Museum visit and museum groups would then have to be scheduled to view Mummy Case together. Materials: Student Clipboard Pencil Teacher White Construction paper (9x12) Assessment: Student will assess on the detail in which observing, describing, questioning, and investigating take place. Four-Corners Graphic Organizer will be on a 16 point scale, 4 pts. per corner for completion with details. Research Rubric will be used as formal assessment for a final investigation of topic of the students choosing.
16 Art Lesson Plan 11/13/10 12:44 PM Title: Creating an Egyptian Cartouche Inquiry Questions: -How did a culture develop a writing system to communicate? -What is the difference between an alphabetic and a glyph system of writing? Objective: Students will create a name cartouche using Egyptian Hieroglyphics Procedure: -Discuss background information: The word hieroglyph comes from Greek and means sacred writing in stone. In 1822, Jean Francois Champollion, a French linguist, discovered the key to reading the Rosetta Stone, a tablet with writing in hieroglyphics, demotic, and Greek. The hieroglyphic system uses a total of about 700 signs, 23 of them alphabetic (compared to English language with 26 letters). Most of the rest represent a combination of sounds, while some stand for whole words. Most signs are based on things commonly found in ancient Egypt such as people, animals, plants, and objects. Hieroglyphic signs could be read in several directions: left to right, right to left, or top to bottom. With so many symbols, most people did not learn how to read and write. Scribes generally wrote letters, records, and literature. The names of Kings were written on an oval stone called a Cartouche. -Look at Hieroglyphic alphabet handout. -Using phonetics, students will sound out their names. -Students will search for the symbols that represent the sound the letters in their name make. Do not use silent letters. -Students draw the symbol that represents the phonetic pronunciation of their name. Draw on the oval shape from top to bottom. -Female students add and egg and a t at the end of their name to indicate a female name. -Transfer the Hieroglyphic name cartouche to a piece of tin (4x12 inch). Place paper over tin, place soft writing surface under tin and trace over the Hieroglyphs with the pencil. The tin will now have an impression of the Hieroglyphic symbols. -Trace over symbols on tin with permanent markers. -Add a decorative frame around the Hieroglyphic symbols using geometric shapes.
17 Materials: Hieroglyphic alphabet handout, pencils, magazines for tracing, permanent markers, and 20 gauge tin. Assessment: Performance/observation: Did each student gain an understanding of the Egyptian language by correctly identifying the symbols that phonetically represent their names and draw them vertically on the materials provided?
