Teacher Note put you in the know a teacher of the week! hitory: BackgrouNd information Pharaoh and Pyramid 2 One neceary element of a great civilization i a trong, table, centralized government. Thi week, we will tudy the government of Ancient Egypt, whoe focal point wa her pharaoh (king). A pharaoh wa believed to be the incarnate un god who, when he died, mounted the un ray to rejoin hi celetial counterpart. Thi belief evolved, and wa well etablihed by the time the Great Pyramid were contructed; indeed, cholar believe that the pyramid hape repreented the ray of the un and wa contructed a a mean by which the god might more eaily acend after leaving hi earthly home. Becaue pharaoh, pyramid (their tomb), mummie (their remain), and the general Egyptian belief about life after death are intimately connected, we will cover them all in thee note. Next week, we will expand our tudy to the entire body of Egyptian mythology. Below are ome general idea about thread you might eek to cover thoroughly with your children in dicuion. Eyptian Government Two kingdom developed early: Upper Egypt (outh, but upland of the delta region) and Lower Egypt (north, near the delta). Lower Egypt i called lower becaue the land i lower! A we learned lat week, the highland are in Central Africa, where Lake Victoria i. Egyptian pharaoh were alway titled King of Upper and Lower Egypt. Their crown were double crown. Before unification, the crown of Upper Egypt wa a white conical headpiece, and the crown of Lower Egypt wa a red, cylindrical one. After unification, king wore a double crown, white within red, and added ometime later, the royal cobra emerging from them. One reaon that Egyptian government remained o ecure wa the belief in it king a a deity. Bring thi fact out when dicuing Egyptian government. Older children hould learn about the dynatie from their print reource, and then record thee dynatie and kingdom into time line. Thee date will erve a reference point a we continue our tudie of the Ancient World, o you hould ak your tudent to record all the date dealing with Egyptian pharaoh or government down to the time of Juliu Caear and Cleopatra. We ve offered a chart in the Student Activity Page and ample anwer for thi chart o you can have a good idea of how detailed the tudent work hould be. Look for thi ample chart at the end of the Hitory Dicuion Outline. Younger tudent will enjoy their firt glimpe of the facinating live of the pharaoh. Reit the urge to require a lot of analytical dicuion with little one. Simply allow them to explore fact and detail about Egyptian pharaoh. Pyramid and Groundwork for Bible Study Young tudent uually enjoy dicovering the myterie and marvel that urround the building procee of the mighty pyramid. If your older tudent i intereted in pyramid contruction, by all mean, let him dive into ome of the book recommended for younger tudent thi week! With all tudent, when dicuing the pyramid thi week, lay groundwork for next week Bible urvey topic: God judgment of the idol of Egypt through the ten plague. Make a trong connection between the fact that while pyramid were contructed to erve a tomb, they were alo inteneded to be monument to the greatne of both the pharaoh and the Egyptian civilization. In Bible time, Egypt wa the tronget, mot advanced civilization of the Mediterranean World. A uch, Egypt wa envied, feared, and revered and alo copied. Egypt repreented the apex of human pride and accomplihment in it day, and the pharaoh wa the focal point of thi pride and elf-importance. Small wonder that God choe to diplay Hi power in Egypt when he called hi people out of lavery and began to prepare the world for it Savior! Mummie, Funeral Rite, and Egyptian Belief About Death: All level will read about the mummification procee and ritual aociated with funeral. We will tudy both the tomb themelve, and the men and women entombed in them. A tricky apect of thi part of the week i that Egyptian funeral rite are tied to religiou belief, and tudent have not yet tudied thoe belief in detail. Indeed, you may not be planning to tudy them at all with younger tudent. Try to focu thi week dicuion on the phyical apect of the proce the who, what, when, and where and leave the why for next week.

Pageant of Philoophy Claic Tapetry of Grace» Pageant cript are printed on gray paper and included in many, but not all week-plan.» Teacher Note contain background information for teacher and ample anwer to tudent aignment.» Reading for tudent that round out the elective are printed in the Reading Aignment Chart. Tapetry: Redeigned» Pageant cript have been integrated into the week-plan. A with Claic Tapetry not all week-plan include a Pageant cript.» Teacher Note upport i ignificantly enhanced in the Teacher Note of Tapetry: Redeigned. Deep thought, fun format The Pageant of Philoophy i an introduction to the hitory of philoophy for high chooler. It gently introduce tudent to the main idea and peronalitie of (motly Wetern) philoophy. We feel that tudent hould be introduced to the idea that oppoe Chritianity and attract unbeliever, undergirding (often without their direct knowledge) many of the unbiblical view in the tudent future friend and neighbor. I your tudent college-bound? You may be concerned about the proponent of conflicting worldview that he will encounter in college dorm dicuion late at night. So are we! That why Scott Somerville ha undertaken writing Pageant of Philoophy. Scott wa a philoophy major at Dartmouth College and ha ingeniouly deigned a erie of playlet joined by a common character. Simplicio i a youth (who can be read by a young man or woman) who i looking for Truth in all the wrong place. He ha rejected the Bible a a non-objective ource of truth, and o, for many weekplan of all four Year-Plan, he wander around aking thoe he meet their opinion of the ource and foundation of Truth. A the week unfold, he encounter the major thinker of hitory and engage each in turn in earnet converation, which comprie the playlet cript. Scott intend that parent will read the role of each philoopher, and tudent the role of Simplicio. After reading the cript, there are background detail and dicuion outline that ait the teacher in completing each leon. If tudent wih to earn high chool credit for thi portion of Tapetry, you may plan a few light reading and writing aignment each term that round out the Hitory of Philoophy elective. In each Pageant cript, Scott ha cleverly integrated direct quote from each philoopher and included footnote. If you or your tudent become curiou about a tatement by a given philoopher, you have a place to tart in digging deeper into the philoopher theorie. Depending on your and your tudent time availability, you can ue The Pageant in a number of different way. Ue it fully a written (including reading and writing aignment), or lightly, by reading jut the playlet each week and dicu it, or chooe not to ue it at all. Ued fully, it i deigned to be a one-credit high chool coure in the Hitory of Philoophy taken over four year (o, each Year-Plan afford 1/4 credit).
