    The Ancient Egyptians worshipped over 2,000 deities representing aspects of society and nature; one of the most well-known was the sun god Ra, who had the head of a hawk. Each night, the goddess Nut, who wore a dress covered in stars, would swallow Ra and the sky, and each morning Ra would be reborn as the sun rose. Students are asked to invent their own Egyptian god representing an aspect of modern life and describe it in 5-6 bullet points, including what animal it may take the form of and sketching an image.

    Egyptian Gods and Goddesses [Friday 5th February & Tuesday 9th

    February]
    The Ancient Egyptians worshipped over 2,000 deities, most of whom
    represented a certain aspect of society or the natural world. One of the
    best-known is the sun god Ra, a man with a hawk’s head. The Egyptians
    had colorful stories for all their gods: Every night Ra would be swallowed
    by Nut, the goddess of the sky who wore a dress covered by stars, and
    would be reborn each morning as the sun rose.

    Invent your own god, getting as creative as possible. Brainstorm some


    ideas of what these new gods could “represent”, like school, friendship,
    sports, etc., and what animals each could be based on. [1 god & 1
    goddesses]

    You can make a sketch of this god and write description of it. You can
    make an online poster of the god and mention its description. Description
    is important [point’s atleast 5 to 6 bullet points].
