Ancient Egypt Hieroglyphics Writing Activity

Hieroglyphics are so much fun to learn about. In this resource pack, there are three activities for students to write and read hieroglyphics.

Activity One (two options):

• Write the hieroglyphics for the alphabet in English (excluding letters that have no equivalent, such as “C” and “E”) on their own paper or on the two options given.
• Trace over the hieroglyphics.

Activity Two:

• Find hieroglyphics in three lines from a primary source.
• Find the cartouche and symbols inside it.
• Identify where to start reading.
• Identify a wheat symbol.

Activity Three:

• Apply what they’ve learned by writing their name in hieroglyphics.
• Decode hieroglyphics to find four inventions. This will be a fun challenge as they have to remember how to convert sounds back to English letters and work out which side they need to start reading from.

U.K. and U.S. versions included.
