Pharaoh Reflection:
Q:Which Pharaoh did you study?
A:I studied Menkaure.
Q:What was the most interesting thing you learned about your pharaoh? Why did you find this to be so interesting?
A:The most interesting thing that I learned about our Pharaoh was that he owned the smallest pyramid in Giza. The reason why I find this so interesting is because I wonder why he built the smallest one because it seems to be that Pharaohs are so the opposite of humble and if Menkaure built the smallest pyramid why? Was he motist? Also did Menkaure really build the pyramid or did other people? If other people did then why did they say that Menkaure built the pyramid?
Q:What was the most challenging aspect of research while studying your pharaoh? Why?
A: The most challenging part of the project was finding an actual credible source with information on our Pharaoh because our Pharaoh lived so long ago that its hard to find a website that you can trust and it actually has a lot of good information on the Pharaoh. Also it was hard to write down all the sources we found the information on.
Q:What was the most challenging aspect of working with a partner throughout this project? Why?
A: Well for my partners and I I’m sure it was even harder because we were a group of 3 not 2 but the hardest part was probably splitting up the work evenly and some people in my group weren’t being kind and I was trying to combine things and compromise and also make everyone happy but it was hard and some of my group mates weren’t doing any work at all.
Q:What do you still wonder about your Pharaoh or about Pharaohs in general?
A: I still wonder what the Pharaohs daily routine looked like. I also wonder was there a maximum amount of children in a family? Did you have to get married? How did girls become Pharaohs? Who was the first girl Pharaoh and how many Pharaohs were there in all? What would the Pharaohs family do all day and what would they wear?
