The hook for this lesson is a brainpop video. In these videos animated characters Tim and Moby explain key concepts about the history of Egypt. This particular video is on Pharoahs. The video is engaging and informative. The video also simplifies the academic language of the lesson so that the students can grasp the content. Input: The students will also be asked key questions about the chapter. One of they key questions from this lesson that will be answering is: What achievements did the ancient Egyptians make during

the New Kingdom? It is important to review because this helps access prior knowledge from the previous chapter. Then I will have students silently read the first page of the chapter and then make predictions about what the chapter. I will also front load key academic terms from the lesson prior to reading. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1YmoiK1ytkWAilEmh1ds9zNUwyud5Nkm4iUxqiB3yOec/edit?u sp=sharing Model: The teacher will model how to navigate through the timeline creation website called Tiki-Toki Using the smartboard the teacher will first model how to login and begin the student created timelines. The students will follow along on the website and create their own username and password to access the online site. Then the students will record their username and password in their social studies journal. Once the students have recorded their online information. I will take my students through the process of creating their timeline. Once students have signed up for their free/ or teacher account on Tiki -Toki they can login a create a new timeline. I will present this presentation and put it our classroom Google docs folder so the students can review over the directions.

Independent Practice Students can continue working on their presentations, I will still be available for any further questions about navigating through the website. Homework: Students will continue storyboarding their 1-2 minute video presentation on Ancient Egypt. The video will consist of images of Egypt and the top three highlights about the Ancient Egypt unit.
