Amid the Pyramids

The title of my webquest is Amid the Pyramids. Students will travel back in time to learn about ancient Egypt. In this WebQuest they will create a mummy, read the book Tut's Mummy Lost . . . And Found, write a newspaper article, create an amulet, and make a model pyramid. The projects assigned to my students are rather large projects. So, each project is a "team project". Every project has a different team leader except for reading the book.. Each team consists of four members. Students will be assessed using a grading rubric. They will be graded on the accuracy and quality of their work, as well as group participation.
