The OLS sixth graders recently completed a unit on ancient Egypt. To fully explore the interdisciplinarity of this topic, they examined Egyptian culture and history from many perspectives, including social studies and art.

They then shared what they learned with the kindergarten students on Egypt Day. The sixth graders helped the younger students create Egyptian-inspired art projects and taught them some of the history behind such uniquely Egyptian elements as the pyramids, sarcophagus, and Sphinx.
