CREATIVE MINDS WANTED! Need some quick ideas....?

Question

Im doing a project on a pharaoh (king thutmose II) and I can't think of a creative way of presenting it! Please help...

most creative answer= 10 pts :)

It's jus ta presentation to talk about their accomplishments (military, political etc)

Answer 1

Get a fake mummy and put a tape recorder in back of it, and record your presentation and let the mummy do that talking. Ahaha. =]

Answer 2

Halloweens right around the corner. Get a costume and dress up like the pharaoh. It will catch peoples attention for sure! They won't be able to take their eyes off of you.

If you don't want to go so bold you can always use Bristol Board and decorate it in a away that appeals to the eye. Decorate it with sand and colorful pictures from the internet.

Power points are always fun too. Add music, images, clips and other neat things.

Answer 3

Can you do makeup like the pharaoh? Can you decorate a t-shirt with hieroglyphics? My mom helped me make Egyptian looking tiles about of home-made clay for a project once (make sure they dry thoroughly before school. My teacher figured out I had made them the night before since mine were still squishy). Do you draw well? What about some posters with creative pictures. Good luck, I have a feeling you'll come up with something fantastic.

Answer 4

Create a paper mache version of the outward mummy casing. then cut it open in a way that it will actually open up, and have a mummy inside. You can use thin, pliable wire to make the mummy, and then dip it in cream colored paint to give the old look. After dipping in the paint, let it dry, then take a course brush or steel wool, to scrape some of the excess paint off, and make it look more worn. Then follow that by adding brown paint with a sponge or dry brush (don't paint it fully brown) and make a texturing/worn out look. Paint the paper mache casing the same way as they did in those days. Look online, or look in an encyclopedia for picture of how to paint it. Using golds, blues, reds, greens, etc.

Answer 5

Answer using an illustrated scroll, using your own form of relevant hieroglyphics, summarising the life story of Pharaoh Thutmose.

You can expand on this later, using a hiero for each summary heading.

Answer 6

This is a sketch of the mummy's head done in the 1800's.

If you were to sculpt a head out of styrofoam (one of those styrofoam wig heads would work too).

Then use thin pieces of latex (cheap, thin gloves) and some glue to simulate the skin.

Then finish with some paints. White, Buff, Amber and Flesh from this chart:

Paint the whole thing white first. Paint just the latex skin flesh. Use the buff for the parts that are not covered in flesh. Finally use the amber to paint the ragged edges of the flesh and to darken the eye socket area.

Answer 7

Wrap one of your friends up as a mummy (tiolet paper of long strips of white cloth), then put little placards on them with information on the pharaoh. Have them stand perfectly still. Or, if you don't want to embalm a buddy, wrap up a Barbie doll of something, and make it a cardboard sarcophogaus, and little card-board cut-out canopic jars. Have your information written on the inside of the sarcophogaus. I did a science project on eating disorders and put little placards on a fake skeleton. I got an A.

Answer 8

i did a project jus like that
i made a small pharaoh and showed the class the steps of making him a mummy=]
it was fun and i got an A
u could also build his pyramid
GOOD LUCK=]

Answer 9

Powerpoint presentation and then a game. You know you could make a board game like as if it was during the time of the pharoahs. Then everyone will be interested.

Answer 10

Dress up like the pharaoh, should be easy being Holloween, have your friends dress as his loyal subjects and work it in your presentation have fun.

Tape it if you can't do it with your friends at school.
