Ancient Egypt: Teach Timmers

As we sprint to the finish of the ancient Egypt unit, it is that time once again to share our knowledge with the world, specifically, Timmers. Though his brain is overflowing with Stone Age and Mesopotamia knowledge, he is ready and waiting for some ancient Egypt information. Unlike past units, we will not have computer lab time to "teach" Timmers, so this is something you must do on your own. Be responsible and own this post. Though our previous two units have been intrigueing, they don't even come close to as amazing as this place called Egypt. Pyramids, Mummification, Pharaohs, Nile River, Hieroglyphics, gods and goddesses and the list goes on! Show Timmers just how great this civilization is by explaining to him all the things we have learned this unit. Though you do not know anything about Timmers, you do know a lot about Egypt, so prove it!

Task: Teach Timmers about ancient Egypt by sharing with him AT LEAST ONE thing from the following topics: (You may do more if you want)
Nile River
Pyramids of Egypt
Gods and Goddesses
Daily Life
Mummification
DUE: This post is due on Wednesday, November 24th, 2010.
Points: 20 points completion

I talked to Timmers last weekend and he said he is excited about Egypt. Don't let him down. Good Luck and Thank you for your great effort.

Hey Timmers I will teach you about the Nile River. Did you know that it flows north. And it gets its name from greek word Nelious meaning the river valley. It is 4,184 miles long. There is two land s by the Nile River one is the black land the other is the red land. The black land is very fertile the red land is dry, hot, and like a desert. The Nile River has two nicknames one is the giver of life and the taker of life. The giver of life is irrigated land for farming. The taker of life is it overflows to much destoryes all the crops kills people or overflows to little which means crops can not grow surplus has to be used.

Elsie Zajicek said...

Hey Timmers so I got a few questions for you what is our real name or is Tim or Timmers your real name?

So instead of talking about you name lets talk about the pyramids. The pyramids are really cool because evey single block weighed 2.5 tons and if they didn't get there block up ther in 2.5 minutes well lets not talk about it. Today in Egypt you can climb on the pyramids and eat KFC or PIZZA HUT right across from the pyramids. So would you rather eat bad food or climb on the pyramids?
but the pyramids aren't just for climbing on or looking they were built for three pharos who names are Khufu who had three little pyramids for his wives, Khafre, and the smallest one Menkuare.Well thats it for now I hope you know more about pyramids than you did before. Blog to you later!!!!!!

Dear Timmers,
I would like to teach you about Ancient Egypy. Did you the Nile River flows North? Weird right, it is because of the elavation. Without the Nile Egypt would not exist.
The Great Pyramid was built for King Khufu. It took 23 years to build!
The sun god Ra is the most important god. There are many many gods because Egypt is polytheistic.
Egyptian houses had doors that are four feet off the ground to keep out water and sand. The wore white tunics and makeup.
Mummification was very cool. It has six steps:
1. Announcement of the Dead
2. Remove brain
3. Remove internal organs
4. Dry out with Natron salt
5. Wrapping
6. The Final Procession

Dear Timmer,
Do you know anything about Ancient Egypt? Well here are some facts. The Nile River is 4,184 miles long. The Nile gets its name from the greek word "Nelios" meaning river valley. The Nile aslo flows North. The Nile has a Red land that flood water doesn't get to. There is a Black land that flood water does get to. Its nicknames are the "Taker of Life" and the "Giver of Life". It's called the "Taker of Life" because it can overflow too much. It's called the "Giver of Life" because it irrigates crops. Now to Gods and Goddesses of Egypt. One of the gods is Ra the sun god. Another gods is Horus the sky god. When you combine them you get
Ra-horkahte the rising sun. The daily life of an egyptain. Three things they center around is religion, pharaoh, and family. They sleep on roofs because its cooler. Their doors are four feet off the ground so flood water wouldn't get in their house. Nobles have 25-30 rooms in their house. Both men and women wear green eye shadow, black eye liner, and red lipstick. They also wear a peice of clothing called a tunic it's white men wear it to their knees and women wear it to their ankles. Now to mummification the six steps th mummification are Annoucement of Death, Renoval of Brain, Removal of internal organs, Drying out process, Wrapping the Body, and Final Procession. They also put the organs in a canopic jars. Now to pyramids there are three pyramids Menkaure, Khafe, and Khufu. The guadian of the Giza complex is the Sphinx head of a man body of a lion. Across the street from Giza is KFC and Pizza Hut. Pyramid of Mendaure is the smallest of the three. Made from limestone and granite. The pyramid of Khafre is the second largest of the three. Each block weighs 2.5 and it appears biggers because of its steep sides and higher ground. The great pyramid was built for Khufu. The worlds tallest building for 1,270 years. There were three small pyramids for his wives and tombs for his nobles. It took 23 years to make the pyramid and the worker were paid. There were 2 million blocks and it was a 4 million ton pyramid. See ya Timmers!

Hello Timmers. Ready to learn about Egypt? First the Nile is known as the 'Giver of Life' and the 'Taker of Life' because it grows crops but also makes people drown. The great pyramid was built for the pharaoh Khufu though it looks smaller than one of the other pyramids it's bigger. Ra was the sun god. The most important. Horus was the god of the sky. A man with the head of a hawk. In their daily life egyptians wor green eyeshadow, black eyeliner, and red lipstick. There are six steps for mummification, first anouncement of death, then removal of brain, then removal of internal organs,Step 4 dry out the body, wrap the body, final procesion

mackenzie roby 9 said...

Hey Timmers im going to tell you some facts about Ancient Egypt.
the Nile River is called the giver and the taker of life because it can overflow to much or not enough so its the taker of life. and with out it egypt wouldnt exist so its the giver of life. both men and women egyptians wore green eyeshadow, red lipstick, and black eyeliner and wore gold jewelry. when dead bodies were mummifyed one of the rituals were weighing the heart. they weighed it against the feather of truth. if it balanced the soul was granted immortality. if the heart was heavier, the soul doomed into horrible fate. the pyramid of khafre looks big because of its steep sides and higher ground.each block weighs 2.5 tons. Ra, the sun god, is the most important god. Horus, is a man with the head of a hawk. is the god of the sky and protector of the ruler of egypt. ra-horakte is a combination of Horus an Ra and is the rising sun.
Bye, see ya later

Hi Timmers! I am going to tell you about the pyramids of Egypt.
There are 3 pyramids in the Giza complex. There are the Great Pyramid (pyramid of Khufu), the pyramid of Khafre, the pyramid of Menkaure. The Great Pyramid took 23 years to build. It is the largest pyramid. Khufu had 3 smaller pyramids built for his wives.
The pyramid of Khafre is the second largest pyramid. It still has some limestone at the top. It appears to be taller than the Great pyramid, but that is because it is on higher ground.
The pyramid of Menkaure is the smallest of the three pyramids. Archaeologists found a beautiful sarcophogus inside. It is lost in the Medditerranean Sea. I hope you learned a little bit about the pyramids in ancient Egypt!

Abby Myers4 said...

Hey Timmers, how are you? Do you want to learn about the Nile River, The pyramids, god and goddesses, Daily life, and mummification? Well you are going to have to learnt it a lot!! First the Nile River is very important to Egypt. It is about 4,184 miles long. It's two nick names are the "The Taker of Life" and "The Giver of Life". Ther is the Red land and the Black land. The Red land is very dry and no crops can grow here. The Black land is very fertile and lots of crops can grow here.
The pyramids of Egypt is very interesting to know. The Great Pyramid belonged to Khufu. It took 23 years to finish it. Each block weighed about 2.5 tons. The pyramid of Khafre is the second largest pyramid. It is unique because the top of the pyramid is still smooth .
God and goddesses are hard to remember in my opinion. But the gods that i remember are Ra, Horus, Ra-Horakhte, and Isis.
The Daily life of a male Egyptian is work in the city or on the farms. And the women would stay home and clean, watch the children, and cook. The children were very important to the Egyptian.
Mummification is my favorite. Here are the steps.

1. Announcement
2. Removal of the brain.
3. Removal of the organs.
4. Drying out the body.
5. Wrapping the body.
6. final procesion

4. Drying out the Body
5. Wrapping the Body
6. Final Procession

Timmers, I hope you learned lots about Ancient Egypt and that my post was helpful to you.

Also it gets it's name from the Greek word "Nelious" which means "River Valley".
2.There are 4 main structures in Egypt and are all located in the Giza. They are The Great Sphinx which has a body of lion and head of man, Pyramid of Menkaure and is the smallest of the 3 pyramids, Pyramid of Khufu is also known as "The Great Pyramid", and Pyramid of Khafre is the 2nd largest also it still has some limestone casing at the top. Plus if you get hungry presently there is KFC and Pizza Hut across the street.
3.There are 6 main steps of mummification here they are:
1.Announcement of Death
2.Removal of Brain
3.Removal of internal organs
4.Drying out process
5.Wrapping the body
6.Final procession
Mummification is very expensive and only rich people like the pharaohs could have it done.
4.Life in Ancient Egypt was centered around 3 main things which are religion,the pharaohs, and family. Children were considered VERY important.
5.There are many Gods and Goddesses like the following:
Ra-the sun god

Hey Timmers I will teach you about the Nile River. Did you know that it flows north? And it gets its name from greek word Nelious meaning the river valley. It is 4,184 miles long. There are to lands by the Nile River.One is the black land the other is the red land. The black land is very fertile the red land is dry, hot, and like a desert. The Nile River has two nicknames one is the giver of life and the taker of life. The giver of life is irrigated land for farming. The taker of life is it overflows to much destoryes all the crops. It can even kill people! Or overflow to little which means crops can not grow surplus has to be used.

Mr. timmers hows it been.
I learned that the Nile River forced people th raise their doors up four feet to keep out water when it flooded.The people who sealed the pyramids had a way to get out and and a way for tomb robbers to get in.Egyptians had seventeen gods and many more.men and women wore green eye shadow,red lip stick, and black eye liner.Whats really weired
is that the Egyptians thought that the brain is a useless organ.So next time I'll blog to you about china and until then I hope you have a good thanks giving.:)

Reilly Wojo pd 4 said...

Hi Mr.Timmers did you know that the Nile River is Called the giver of life becase it gives food to the people. The three main pyramids are Khufu,Khafre, and Menkaure. A couple gods are Ra the king of the sun,Amum is the king of all,Isis is protective goddess,Ptah god of craftman,and geb is god of Earth. The sons would take the land and the woman would take the house stuff that is good when their parents die. Their is 6 steps to do mummification and these are it announcement of death, romoval of brain, removal of argans, dry out the body, and final presetsen.

Rebecca H.P.3 said...

Hey Timmers! Ancient Egypt is really cool so here is some stuff about it!
Did you know that the nile river is the longest river in the world!?Cool huh? Plus it overflows just enough to water crops.
What do you think the most famous thing in Ancient Egypt is? Oh well, I'll telll you anyway. Its the pyramids.Where people are buried after mummification,but that is later. The pyramids are four-cornered triangles with tombs inside.
Give me a name of a god? Well egyptians are polytheistic which means that they believe in more than one god/goddess. The people believed that if you worshiped them enough good things will happen.
Daily life apparel is green eye-shadows, black eyeliner,and red lipstick. Now you can look like an egyptian!
Now its time for mummification. Mummification is perserving a dead body. You first announce the death. Then you take the body up to a tent and remove the brain with a hook up the nose. Ewww! Then the "Slitter" comes and cuts a slit into the body. Then everyone pelts him with rocks until he leaves. Then a priest with a jackel-headed mask grabs the eternal organs andputs them in canopic jars. After that they pour natron salt on the body to dry it out. It takes forty days. Then they wrap it with linen. At last they bury it in a tomb where he shall rest in piece. Thank you so much for listening! Bye!

Erin L3 said...

Dear Timmers
I am going to inform you about 5 subjects
1.The Nile river-It is 4184 miles long and it flows north.It can be a giver of life because of irrigation but it can be the taker of life because it can overflow too much.
2.The Pyramids of Egypt-There are three of them. The biggest is called The Great pyramid. It is called that because it is the largest of the three pyramids.
3.Gods and Godesses-One god is Ra and he is most important because he is the god of Sun.A godess is Hathor and she is the godess of Love and Joy.
4.Daily Life-They wore 3 main things on their faces. Black eye liner,red lipstick,and green eyeshadow. Usually they didnt wear shoes.The men would wear tunics down to their knees and women wore them to their ankles. The women put scented fat on themselves so they would smell good. YUCK!
5.Mummification-There is 6 steps
1.Announcement of death.
2.Removal of brain
3.Removal of internal organs
4.They were covered in natron salt to dry them out.
5.They were wrapped in linens and inbetwenn the layers they put small madalions so they would have a safe passage to the afterlife.
6.The final procession is where people were payed to cry. The more the people cried the more the gods thought he was valuble in life. Thenthey wieghed his heart against the feather of truth. If it was balanced he would have a safe passage to the afterlife but if it was uneven then he would shurley not go to the afterlife and his heart was devoured.
I hope you learned alot! :)

spencer D6 said...

Hi,Timmers!


I hope you had a great thankgiving!
How was your turkey? Mine was great! Okay,so I heard that you're excited to learn about ancient Egypt. So I got some info for you!


first,I want to tell you about gods . They are very important in life in Egypt. Gods are said to say who are to be kings,or pharoahs.(I'll tell you about those later.)Ra,or sun god, is also the most important gods. Khnum,a god with a head of a curly horned ram,is the god of flooding. So if the god is happy,there will be floods for the crops. If the god is mad,he won't give any floods,or even over floods the nile river.

Lastly,I want to talk about pharoahs. Pharoahs are kings of Egypt. They're chosen by the gods,then they hand down the throne to their son when they die. Pharoahs
are said to be living gods,even though they still die.When pharoahs do die,their bodies go through a process called,"Mummification." Their bodies must go through this process because it gives the pharoahs a safe passage to the afterlife.

Well,that's my stuff about ancient Egypt. I hope this info helped you out alot! See you next time!

KaylaKpd6 said...

Hey Timmers I am here to talk about Ancient Egypt. The Nile River flows north because it goes downhill. The Pyramids of Egypt are Kafre, Kufu, Menkure and they are located at Giza.

Hey Teach Timmers I am going to teach you about the Nile River. The Nile has a black land and a red land. The black land is good for fertile soil. The red land is not so great it is bad for crops and it is like a dessert.

Next I am going to Teach you about Gods and Goddesses. One of the Gods if Ra the sun god. Don't blame me I amk not that good at Gods and Goddesses.

I am going to teach you about Daily life. The way things work is that the men go to work while the woman stay home and clean raise the kids and cook.

Now I am going to teach you about mummification the first step is the annoncment of death. The next step is the removal of the brain. Then the removal of the organs. Next is the drying out proccess then they wait for 40 days then they wrap the body. The last one is the final possesion. If you add that up it should give you six total steps.

Well, Teach Timmers that is alol I have for you. I hhope you learned a lot just like I did. (I hope you are a lot better than Mr. Klumper.)

I hope you write back to me soon your awesomely awesome friend, Morgan

One last thing I forgot the pyramids there are 3 pyramids and I want you to know them all. Well, we will let you look them up yourself. Ok one is the Great Pyramid.

annab3 said...

dear Timmers

have you ever learned about mummification and the proccess of how it work because if you havent i am going to teach you.

the defininition of mummification is which the dead body is preserved. the ancient egyptins did this so the body can enter an after life.
The first step in mummification is the annoucement of death. next the ancient egypttions would remove the brain with a hook and twist it out. Next is removal of the internal organs (gross). there is a slitter and he slits the body but ends up getting rocks thrown at him. After that anubis (the king with a jackal heade mask also known as anubis ) removes the organs but leaves the heart inside. The next step is the drying out proccess which is done so the pharoh will reconize the body in the after life. After that is the wrapping of the body. While doing this egyptioin would place amulets and resin between the layers of cloth. Finnally is the finall proccession and is when the mummi is finished.

i hope you learned somthing from this thanks for reading

BradyB3 said...

Hey timmers this is Brady. im going to teach you some stuff about the nile river. The nile river is called the giver of life and it is also called the taker of life. It is called the giver of life because it overflows for crops to grow and for fertile land.
It is called the taker of life because it overflows to much sometimes and kills people and it overflows to less sometimes so crops cant grow.
The land right along the nile is called the black land and the land farther out from the nile is called the red land. It is called the black land because it is so fertile from the nile overflowing. The red land is just all dry desert.
See you later.

1.The Nile River is 4,184 miles long. It gets it's name from the Greek word "Nelious" which means river valley. It has a black land and red land. The red land is desert and no crops can grow and you guessed it the black land is fertile and lots of crops grow there.

Hello Timmers! Im going to teach you about the pyramids of Egypt. The great pyramid (built for khufu)is the largest one EVER. Anyways, the pyramids were used as tombs for pharoahs. They also held their canopic jars (they held the internal organs) and their possessions. They usually end up in grave robbery. The pyramid of khafre is unique because it still has some limestone casing at the tip. If you want to see it, you can google it. If you say you dont have internet, then that is a lie, or you would not be able to post anything or read anything. Bye ☺

STEP ONE announse the death of the pharoh not a bad job

STEP TWO REMOVE THE BRAIN it was point less in eygpt ok job but I do not want it

STEP THREE TAKE OUT ORGINS. They had a guy called a slitter he cut a hole in the body but as soon as he did he got nailed with rocks because ruined the body.

STEP FOUR COVER IN NEUTRON SALT they did this to dry out the body


STEP FIVE RAP THE BODY TO give it the mummy look in my opinoin

Hey Timmers, Hows it going im going to teach you about Anciet Egypt!

The Nile River is 4,184 around it is the red and black lad. first theres the black land thats were we get our crops, the red land is just mostly sand thats hot.

Mummifaction is were you perserve a body for the after life and so when it gets there the person or paroh notices the body the steps are.
1. Annoucemt of death
2. Remove the brains
3. Remove the internal organs
4. Drying out the body
5. Wrap the body
6. Final pocession

The pyramids are very rare and cool the pyramids took about 23 years to finish and each weighing about 2.5 tons and had to be placed on 2.5 minutes per block this had to be done so when the pharoh died he would have his pyramid done often people did not get breaks or being able to rest the got payed very little some just did it to help there family.

Gods and Goddess people belived in many of them there was many the had a list that went on and on that mea they were polytheistec means belief in many gods or goddess theres the god of sun named Ra theres many gods.

Pharohs are the rulers of Egypt the controlled the people and made taxes so he could get the money when these pharohs died his loyal people would go around and pay people to cry alot of people did this just to get the money.

Hieroglypics was the writing system they would write on the pharohs tomb on the walls anywhere mostly.

Papyrus is a plant that people use to make paper and other matierls.

Daily Life faimlys value there children in the family when there parents die the boy gets the land and the girl gets furniter and the cooking stuff. when they are in school only boys got to go and girls had to stay home and work in the kitchen.

Thats all i got to say see ya Timmers!

Hi Mr.Timmers today I am going to teach you about the Nile River,the Great Pyramids of Giza,Gods and Godesses,Daily Life, And Mummification. So lets get started shall we. The Nile river is the longest river in the world! Now thats big. The great pyramids are made up of three. The largest is the pyramid of Khufu. The egyptians belived in 17 gods the most prassed was RA the sun god, also the ruler of the gods. The daily life of egypt cosisted of women cleaning, cooking, and raising the children. The men would work on the pyramid or other important things. Mummification was used to keep the body intacked so when the Pharoah came in the after life He/She would find the body. There is 6 steps to mummification. The main ones to me are Removal of organs, final procetion, and removal of brain.

Well thats all for you today.

Hey Mr. Timmers! I am so excited to tell you about Ancient Egypt. The first thing I am going to tell you about is the Nile River. The Nile was very important to the Egyptians because it over flowed and that gives the farmers good fertile soil to grow crops. The second thing that I am going to teach you about is the Pyramids of Egypt. A complex called Giza is the main complex of pyramids. There are three main pyramids in Giza also a sphinx. The Sphinx is a pyarmid that has the head of a man and the body of a lion. The sphinx also has a nickname it's "The Gaurdian of the Pyramids" because it looks like it is gaurding the pyramids. Well that's all from me. Hope you learned a little bit about Ancient Egypt! And thank you for your time reading my my blog.

Last topic is Daily life and children were very important.

The black land is a very fertileland right along the nile.
The red land no crops could grow, desert.
the nile is called the giver of life because irrigation land for farming transporting goods, food means to survive.
It is also called the taker of life because it over flows to much, destroyed crops,killed people, over flowed to little crops couldn't grow, surplus has to be used. it also is 4,184 miles long.

devinc8 said...

hi timmers.
the nile river is called the giver of life becuase it persies food. and it is also called the takker of life because it drouns people.

Kaylee Riley Pd.6 said...

Hi timmersd! I am going to teach you about Egypt ancient Egypt! First is the Mummification!

Mummification- The five steps of mummification are: first the person dies, then you take out the brain with a hook,then make a slit in the stomach to take out the organs, after you do that you have to stuff the body with hay and rags, then you cover the body with sand and preserve it,after that is all done you put mummia on the body!

Pyramids- There are three pyramids of the giza complex, also the great spinx:)

Now about the nile river- It is called the giver of life because it provides good land for farming. it is called the taker of life because it can overflow too much and ruin crops and sometimes even kill people i would hate that part.

Gods and goddesses- I only remeber Ra the god of sun and i guess Geb the god of earth, nut the god of sky and that is mostly it..

Daily Life-in daily life both men and women wore green eyeshadow, black eye liner,red lipstick.. Wow that is all the time i have i hope you learned something about egypt today:) and tell mr. Klumper not to take points off for this being late i already have a bad enough grade

Daytonj9 said...

My friend Timmers how are you today? Today I am going to teach you about acient Egypt. The first thing I am going to teach you is about the Nile River. Did you know with out the Nile River Egypt would not exist? The next thing I am going to teach you is about mummification. Here are the six steps of mummification.

1. Announcement of death
2. Removal of brain
3. Removal of eternal organs
4. Drying out the body
5. The rapping of the body
6. The final procession

Those are the six steps of mummification. The next thing I am going to teach you is about gods and godesses. The sun god is Ra. Now I am going to teach you about Pyramids. The pyramids were used as tombs for the pharaohs. We were reading about how king Tut died. He died of a broken leg. This was proven by the archeologist who found his tomb. The acient Egyptians wore tunics as clothing and some times they wore nothing.
