Class Experience

US Grade 3 - 6
Want to make a mummy? In this class, we will take a trip to ancient Egypt and learn all about the mummification process by mummifying a doll or large action figure! Learners will be introduced to the role of mummies in ancient Egypt. They will then be led step by step through the mummification process, while acting out each step on their own doll. At the end of the class, learners will walk away with a new mummified toy. I am an elementary school educator who has experience teaching ancient civilizations to students. I have also taken courses in the history of ancient Egypt. I can't wait to introduce the wonders of ancient Egypt to learners in a fun, hands-on way.

Learning Goals

Students will learn about the importance of mummies in ancient Egypt and the steps that were undertaken to make a mummy.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
This class could get a little messy, so parents may want to supervise their children to minimize this as much as possible.
Supply List
Learners will need a doll or large action figure they will not mind permanently turning into a mummy. They will also need a shoebox or other small box, markers, paper, modelling clay, a cloth or sponge, vinegar, cooking oil, spices of any kind, salt, white fabric (linen or muslin works well), flour, and a bowl.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Sources
We will look at photos of real mummies throughout the class.
