Students will learn about the following:

√ The science of entomology.
√ The difference between insects (with six legs) and arachnids (spiders 
   and scorpions).
√ How the ancient Egyptians identified with all the animals that 
    surrounded them, including insects and other related 
    animal life. 
√ Some of the more influential buglike creatures that tormented and/or 
    delighted the ancient Egyptians.

    specific insects.

I hold a Certificate of Museum Studies from Harvard University and a Diploma in Egyptology from Oxford College in England.  And I’ve been to Egypt three times on personalized, educational tours.

I've been captivated by ancient Egypt since I was 10 years old.  And I feel it's my destiny to share my enthusiasm for and expertise on this beautiful and brilliant 5000-year-old civilization with all of you.  I hope to see you soon in this class.  I think you'll agree that The Egyptian Room is an attractive, fun and inspiring place to learn.  And, please, if you like, call me Ms. Sennuwy - my chosen ancient Egyptian name.

    

提供的家庭作業
There will be no official homework unless a student requests it.
提供的評估
There will be a pre-class quiz that students can take to assess their knowledge before we start the lesson.  We will go over the quiz in class.  If the students get the answers right, I'm impressed.  If they don't, I tell them, I'm happy because I know they will at least learn the facts tested on the quiz.
