As an introduction to our Egyptian Art unit, my second-graders watched this three-minute .National Geographic video about Ancient Egypt. The students learned how the people lived and why they made mummies, not just how they made them. By the time we were ready to begin plaster mummies, they had some background knowledge and visuals.
I also made an Animoto video to promote our annual Art Show. I am going to show it to the kids the week before and have the web address posted in our monthly newsletter.
