Sarah's Powerpoint

Sarah has been working all week on a Powerpoint Presentation. She decided she wanted to learn about Gods in Egypt.

She created an information page about each God, and then showed a picture. She has a few things to change, and then wants to publish it in a place for everyone to view.

She told us about Isis,
the Goddess of Nature. She sometimes wore a winged Headdress or had wings for arms.

Isis married Orisis. She explained that Osiris was the God of Agriculture. He was killed by his jealous brother, and so he become God of Underworld. He was the brother and husband of Isis. At that time Royalty had to only marry royalty (often a brother or sister) , so Egyptian Gods were believed to do the same.

Horus was the son of Isis and Osiris. He was the Sky God. Every morning he rode a boat through the sky to help push the sun through it.

Thoth was the God of wisdom and the inventor of picture writing .he was also the God of scribes.

Sarah did a great Job answer questions, and teaching the whole family what the Egyptians believed.
