Let the pupils in your history or art lessons experience Egypt creatively! On these pages, under the heading Egypt teaching materials, we have bookmarks made from real Egyptian papyrus, for example, which the pupils can design themselves using watercolors or tempera. These can be Egyptian motifs, such as painting templates of the gods Isis, Maat or Anubis, or Egyptian hieroglyphics made using a template! There are also stamps with authentic Egyptian characters. This gives pupils a whole new approach to history and they will be proud of their own creations.
Papyrus making is easy and fun!
Or make the ancient writing material papyrus yourself with your pupils. You will also find everything you need for this in the Egypt teaching material set - and you will also find information on how to describe the material here. Write like the ancient Egyptians!
