For FUN and FACTS!

EGYPT IN THE I-LAB!

  • Students used Tinkerlab to design their obelisks, 
  • then used the 3-D printer to make small models.  
  • Afterward, they used ratio to make larger cardboard obelisks to decorate the entrance to the Ancient History classroom.

  • Not only did they learn about design, but 
  • they used Egyptian hieroglyphics to put an important word on their obelisk in relief
  • they did a little research about Egyptian obelisks as well.  
  • Did you know we have an ancient Egyptian obelisk in the United States?  
  • Ask an 8th Grade Ancient History scholar to tell you where it is!
