Egypt Day

Egypt Day is very popular across many schools across the UK, adding it to their yearly activities, and we have taught at many!

National Curriculum Friendly

Linking to the topics of history and world dance styles, Egyptian dance covers a lot of bases in a fun way. It adds another layer of learning that children really respond to.

Egypt Day Lesson Plan

  • Intro about Ancient Egypt and facts about it’s history
  • Showing some Egyptian props and costume
  • Dressing up in hip scarves and gold ‘medals’ which we provide (where possible)
  • Warm up to traditional Egyptian music
  • Learning a dance routine using iconic Egyptian dance moves
  • The children may have time to extend the dance in groups – depending on how long their workshop is
  • Mini performance to the rest of the class of the dance they have learnt
  • Cool down to finish

Music

The music we use is a mixture of traditional and more modern Egyptian music and songs.
