History Key Stage 2 ~ Life in Ancient Egypt


Setting

460 BC. Preparations for the Festival of the Nile  are made during the morning, while celebrations take place during the afternoon.

Workshops

History Off the Page will bring all the equipment and materials needed to set up workshops in your hall. The atmosphere will be created by using drama and role-play, facsimile items and the sort of materials which were used by the Egyptians.  The workshops normally include: Mummification, Tomb painting, Scarab carving, making Canopic Jars, etc.

Afternoon Session

Using props and role-play, a dramatic recreation of the Festival of the Nile will take place.

Details of this and further information about the day are included in a booklet which is sent out prior to a booking. All the History Off the Page providers are experienced teachers and storytellers who enjoy working with large groups of children. Generally there will be a story told during the day.

Costumes are available to order from Off the Peg.
