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.

Aligns with Indiana Social Studies Standard: 6.H.1.

What's included:

• Teacher instructions.
• Two versions of the same maze with information about how to read Egyptian Hieroglyphics.
• Answer Key.
• Follow up questions.

How is this product useful:

• Easy prep for teachers.
• Engaging for students.
• Two versions of the same maze.
• Follow up questions add rigor.
• Great for bell ringers, early finishers, or centers.

French Weekly Self-Assessment FREEBIE

This handy self-assessment sheet is designed largely for French teachers at the K-2 level. The quick and easy table means students just quickly mark the emoji that best suits how they feel about their week.

It takes students a few weeks to really get used to being reflective about their role in the learning process but believe me, it is so rewarding when they start to really understand the role they play in making each week successful.

Who can use this resource?

I use this resource for Grade 1 and Grade 2 and have passed it along to our Kindergarten team and we all love its simplicity

How do I use it?

Easy peasy lemon squeezy! Just copy enough pages for your class. I like to do this a few times in small group batches until students really get the hang of it. Then, we can do it as a whole group at the end of the week.

I reflect back to it often during the week so students are primed to put some metacognition into play.

***1. French SOR Sound Cards

***2. French Decodable Reading

***3. Roles et Responsabilites

***4. French Number Line

***5. French Attention Grabbers

***6. French Speaking Passport

***7. French Pyramid Reading

3. Students grow in their understanding of their role in their own education
