About This Product

Go over the basic facts of Ancient Egypt using these notes. This product includes a printable and digital Google Slides version of the notes pages. it is geared toward the Virginia SOLs, but can be used as an introduction to Ancient Egyptian contributions, geography, and architecture. The printable version includes several variations: fully filled out, fill-in-the-blank, less information per page, and blank notes pages to fill out. The digital notes come in two sizes: portrait, so you can assign them as notes for your students in a paperless classroom or digital classroom, and landscape, which can be used as instructional materials projected on a interactive board or a projector.

I usually print these two to a sheet and then the students merely have to cut them and glue them in their notebooks and they fit perfectly without using too much paper. These are not the kind of interactive notebooks with lots of pieces that flip up and down or require a great deal of cutting. I try to make simple, easy-to-use, printer friendly notes.

Included in the notes pages:

Important vocabulary

Basic Facts

Egypt Vocabulary

Geography

Government

Mummies (this is a favorite of the students)

Contributions

Architecture
