Students will conclude our
examination of the pyramid building process with an analysis of the effort and
energy needed to move a single pyramid block. Students will be able to
describe at least 5 inventions/innovations the Egyptians used to make the block
moving process easier with 97% accuracy. Students will be able to list
and explain all the jobs in the block moving process with 95% accuracy.
Students will use addition, subtraction, division, multiplication, percentages,
and fractions to quantify the energy and effort to move just one pyramid
block. We will conclude our examination of the building process by
reenacting the block pulling process. Students will use the first hand
experience of pulling a pyramid block to understand the difficulties facing the
Egyptians 4,500 years ago.
