Our Egypt Class Project: The Pyramid

Egypt Projects - The Pyramid

Back in ancient times, the Egyptians built pyramids out of huge blocks of stones. For this fun project, you won't have to worry about rocks, or even pebbles. In fact, you can even eat this pyramid while you make it! You'll need about 220 sugar cubes, so raid your mom's kitchen cupboard for a new package.

• Glue one side of a sugar cube onto a big piece of cardboard. Make a square of 10 cubes across and 10 cubes down.
• Make a second layer of 9 cubes, but glue this row about two cm in from the first row.
• Continue these steps, using eight cubes, then seven and so on until you reach the top.
• Once you're done with the glue, you can paint your pyramid!              ( site: kidzworld)
