Sixth graders in Mr. Staten’s civics class took part in a celebration of Ancient Egypt on Monday. This festival imitates aspects of an Egyptian ceremony that celebrated a pharaoh’s rule. Animals, like wolf gods, were part of this festival historically, and Egyptians wore robes made of animal skins. However, 6th graders made their own costumes, celebrating various Egyptian leaders including King Tut, Ramses, and Hatshepsut, a female pharaoh. Civics class studies the history of societies, both in ancient and modern times.
