The lesson plan for Who Built the Great Pyramids? is designed to help home-educating parents and carers guide learners through one of the most iconic moments in ancient history. This resource explores who built the pyramids, how they achieved such massive structures without modern technology, and why they were built in the first place.

The plan includes clear objectives, open discussion prompts, hands-on creative activities, comprehension tasks, and deeper-thinking questions to help learners of different ages and abilities engage with the topic. Parents will find ready-made tasks and ideas they can use straight away, with the flexibility to adapt the session to suit their child’s interests or learning style.

This is a flexible and family-friendly lesson plan that works well as a one-off history focus or as part of a larger project on ancient civilisations, Egyptian mythology, or engineering through the ages. Whether your child loves drawing, writing, researching, or talking through ideas, this plan gives you a structure that supports and encourages curiosity at every step.
