Queen Nefertiti | Chalk Drawing | Ancient Egypt

For our Ancient Egypt unit study, we did a series of chalk drawings for our main lesson books. I drew a scene on the chalkboard, then the kids drew it in their main lesson books. Each drawing accompanies an narrative entry based on a lesson we did for this unit. We use a Waldorf inspired curriculum using the main lessons as our unit studies. We read passages from Living Books (Charlotte Mason educational philosophy), followed by chalk drawings, narrations, and hands-on projects.
