Pharaohs of Egypt 2010

DESCRIPTION: Having already covered Egypt we decided it would be good to narrow the focus of this unit to just the Pharaohs. I have tried to

eliminate repeat information and websites as possible.

Our group has students in college through preschoolers and we create materials for every child. Sometimes we will have many

parents and the unit will be large other times we will have just five or so and the unit is naturally smaller.

Our group policy has changed: To receive a free unit participants must create at least one printable for the final unit. (Exclusion

for those in financial need situations)

Dear Friends: As most of you know we had a family emergency in March while this unit was being compiled. If I have forgotten

to add Items you sent in please forgive me. I would appreciate it if you let me know what you sent in and resend it to me I will

add it to the unit.

Hugs

Dori

NOTE TO GROUP: Many of the shared links were also in the Egypt unit that we did last year and were not included in this unit.

ASSEMENT: • A daily log should be kept. Our family uses Homeschool Tracker Plus. There is a free basic program at for you to use.

The printable report can be added to your finished portfolio.

• A portfolio (aka lapbook) of materials covered. When an Item doesn’t attach well to your portfolio you may either

attach a large envelope or include a digital photograph. If you are using your printout from Homeschool Tracker and

you want to include it in your lapbook style portfolio I suggest using the 4/1 setting on your printer.

Menes is the name of the Egyptian

king credited with founding the First

dynasty, sometime around 3100 BC.

Menes was seen as a founding figure

for much of the history of Ancient

Egypt.

Ancient Egypt was divided into Up-

per and Lower Egypt. Each kingdom

has it's own king. Menes was the

king of Upper Egypt.

Egyptian legend credits a pharaoh

by this name with uniting Upper and

Lower Egypt into a single, centralized

monarchy. Menes was the first to

wear the double crown.

Facts about Tutankhamen - glue

Tutankhamen was an Egyptian phar-

aoh of the 18th dynasty during the

period of Egyptian history known as

the New Kingdom. Tutankhamen was

nine years old when he became phar-

aoh and reigned for approximately ten

years. As Tutankhamen began his

reign at such an early age, his vizier

and eventual successor Ay, his uncle,

was probably making most of the im-

portant political decisions during

Tutankhamen's reign.

He is remembered because of the

1922 discovery by Howard Carter of

Tutankhamen's intact tomb. Tutank-

hamen's burial mask remains the most

popular art of Ancient Egypt.

Ramses II also known as Ramses the

Great was the third Egyptian phar-

aoh of the nineteenth dynasty.

He is often regarded as Egypt's

greatest, most celebrated, and most

powerful pharaoh. He is believed to

have taken the throne in his early

20s. The early part of his reign was

focused on building cities, temples

and monuments.

On his death, he was buried in a

tomb in the Valley of the Kings; his

body was later moved to a royal

cache where it was discovered in

1881, and is now on display in the

Cairo Museum.

Queen from 1350 b.c. - 1334 b.c.

Nefertiti was the Great Royal Wife

of the Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten.

Nefertiti and her husband were

known for changing Egypt's religion

from a polytheistic religion to a

monotheistic religion.

She was made famous by a lime-

stone bust of her, now in Berlin's

Neues Museum. The bust is one of

the most copied works of ancient

Egypt. It was attributed to the

sculptor Thutmose, and it was found

in his workshop.

Facts about Nefertiti - glue inside

Facts about Cleopatra VII - glue

inside flip book.

Cleopatra VII was the last ruler to

rule Egypt and is the most famous of

all Egyptian Queens. After she died

Egypt became a Roman province. She

formed a liaison with Gaius Julius

Caesar that solidified her grip on the

throne that she shared with her

brother. She later elevated her son

with Caesar, Caesarion, to co-ruler.

After Caesar's assassination in 44 BC,

she aligned with Mark Antony in op-

position to Caesar's legal heir Gaius

Julius Caesar Octavian (later known

as Augustus). After losing the Battle

of Actium to Octavian's forces, An-

tony committed suicide. Cleopatra

soon followed suit, according to tradi-

tion killing herself by means of an asp

bite on August 12, 30 BC.

Queen from 51 b.c. - 30 b.c.

Facts about Hatshepsut - glue inside

flip book.

Hatshepsut meaning Foremost of No-

ble Ladies was the fifth pharaoh of

the eighteenth dynasty of Ancient

Egypt. She is generally regarded by

Egyptologists as one of the most suc-

cessful pharaohs, reigning longer than

any other woman of an indigenous

Egyptian dynasty. In comparison with

other female pharaohs, Hatshepsut's

reign was long and prosperous. She

was successful in warfare early in her

reign, but generally is considered to

be a pharaoh who inaugurated a long

peaceful era. Nobody knows for sure

how she died. After her reign, her

name and image were removed from

every monument.

Queen from 1479 b.c. - 14575 b.c.
