P3B, Ancient Egyptian Pyramids!

The children in P3B have been busy this week learning about the pyramids in Egypt. They have been fascinated by their size! The children built a paper 3B pyramid, and in groups used sugar cubes, Lego and construction blocks to build pyramid structures.
They learned that all pyramids must start with a square base and that there are over 130 pyramids in Egypt 🇪🇬.
After researching in pairs, the children found out that it took thousands of men to build a pyramid, and inside they are full of secret tunnels, passages and chambers. They were built for the Pharaohs and contain treasure inside.
The children recorded their findings on a pyramid fact file. It has been a very interesting topic for the children ❤️
