    This lesson explores the geography of Egypt and examines how people have adapted to living in the Nile River Valley, the Sahara Desert, the Wadi, and the Oases regions. The activities are engaging for students, and the guided 5-E format is easy for you to use! Everything you need is included!

     

    Start with a fun “Memory Game: Egypt” warm-up, followed by an Egypt mapping activity. Fill-in notes accompany the lesson. Next, challenge students to complete a “GSI - Geography Scene Investigation” that examines various human-environment interactions in the region. A printable “walk-around” poster version is also included for in-class instruction. Finally, evaluate learning by having your class create “Cultural Landscapes,” analyzing how Egyptians have adapted to the environment throughout history.
