Reading Egyptian Hieroglyphics Maze Activity: 6th Grade Studies Weekly Week 6
By Colleen Burdette
How to read Egyptian Hieroglyphics:
In this activity students will practice the direction in which Egyptian Hieroglyphics are read. Students will learn that Egyptian Hieroglyphics are read in different directions based on different situations. Students will then work their way through a maze based on the information they learn.
There are two different versions of the same maze, one has just one type of hieroglyphics and the other has five types.
This is a great activity for bell ringers, early finishers, or wrapping up an Egyptian unit.
Follow up questions which allow for students to make connections and increase rigor.
