What educators are saying

This was an amazing resource to use with my ancient Egypt unit. I had to adapt the canopic jar activity a little bit due to not having the classroom time to decorate. However, the students loved being able to document the daily observations of the apple slice. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
We used this resource during our ancient Egypt unit. My students really enjoyed the stem activities and they learned a lot. They especially loved mummifying the apples. Thank you for a great resource!

Description

Ancient Egypt STEM & STEAM Challenges

Cross-curricular challenges for students who are studying Ancient Civilizations and Ancient Egypt!

This resource has science, technology, engineering, and measurement activities to do with your upper elementary kids that will really enhance their learning!

There are 2 Egypt STEM Challenges in this pack. Each STEM Challenge has detailed directions, photo examples, a list of materials needed, prediction section, brainstorming section, trials 1, 2, & 3, final results section with drawings, and a reflection section.

The STEM Challenges include:

1. Mummified Apples in Caponic Jars Challenge!

Using a list of supplies, students must first design four canopic jars.

Using 4 slices of apple, students must test different mixtures using salt, baking soda, vinegar, and sugar. Out of the 4 slices, they must have a control group (no ingredients used on the apple) to measure the mummification process. They need to write down the exact measurements for each mixture using a page found in the resource. Each Canopic Jar needs to be labeled with the mixture. After applying the mixtures to the apples, they are placed inside the sealed jars. For the next four days, students must record their observations during the mummification process. ***More instructions are found in the resource

2. Toothpick Pyramid Challenge Using a list of supplies, students must design either a freestanding square or rectangular pyramid. The goal of the challenge is to design the tallest pyramid in the shortest amount of time. If glue is used instead of non-drying clay or marshmallows, allow for drying time. Students only need to use the timer during building time. They can stop the clock while their pyramid dries. The group who can build the tallest pyramid in the shortest amount of time wins the challenge. ***More instructions are found in the resource
