Sixth-grade students transformed Charlie Huddleston's classroom at Evergreen Elementary School into an Egyptian wonderland, showcasing their incredible projects at the much-anticipated Egyptian Museum event today!
From pyramids to pharaohs, hieroglyphics to mummies, students delved into the rich history of ancient Egypt, bringing the past to life with creativity and, in some cases, mummified hot dogs that smelled like cinnamon.
Let's give a round of applause to these young historians for their hard work and dedication!
