The BBC says: “This video gives a snapshot of Ancient Egypt and how important the process of burial was, particularly to the pharaohs. It can be used to discuss the process of burial, and how much thought went into preparations and carrying out the process itself. It will help pupils understand how we find out about the past and the role of sources in this exploration. We find out about King Tutankhamun’s life through the sources that were found in his tomb - the burial mask, the shabti and other items. This provides opportunities for pupils to explore the role and reliability of sources when carrying out historical enquiry. Pupils can discuss how early explorers such as Howard Carter would have felt at the time of the discovery and also to consider how they would handle historical remains sensitively - preserving what was found while learning from the remains.”

The BBC KS2 Class Clips Ancient Egypt web-page has the video and extensive teachers’ notes, suggesting further work.

Differentiated! Both versions look very similar, but “B” version has subtle clues. 14 questions for the 4-minute film. .doc and .pdf of all sheets, link to video on all sheets. Answer sheet. Very easy to mark.
