Pyramid Making

PYRAMIDS
Today in social studies we have been learning about the Egyptian pyramids and got to build our own pyramids out of Lego!


  • Pyramids were built as burial places and pharaohs monuments. They put things like treasure, gifts and things they might need in the afterlife.
  • There are 138 pyramids and the largest is Khufu
  • The largest pyramid is around 480 feet tall
  • They were made with steps that gradually faded they further up the pyramid
  • All pyramids were built to the north side of the river Nile because the south side was dead land
  • They put traps to keep the robbers out and they were made from limestone
  • They were the tallest man-made sculpture for around 300,800 years
