Info Teach Kit-Eyewitness Ancient Egypt

Published 1 July 1995

As children "discover" ancient Egypt with this kit, they also develop the broader ability to organize and interpret evidence from a variety of sources. Working as amateur archaeologists and historians, pupils can explore and reconstruct ancient villages, homes and tombs (including the pyramids). Other projects encourage them to gather cultural clues from jewellery, clothing and religious artefacts. The kit also emphasizes the role of Egypt's most notable geographical features - the desert and the river Nile - in the shaping of ancient Egyptian society. Contents of this kit include books and booklets, magazines, project planner cards and wallcharts.
