Go to Artsconnected and look at one piece of art from each of the Egyptian Kingdoms (Old, Middle, New). Choose your favorite and answer the following questions:
1)What do you notice?

We are having a contest for the best description. Be very detailed. You want to explain it so a blind person who has never seen the art before knows exactly what it looks like. The person who describes their piece of art the best will win a ride down to lunch or back up (with Mr. H) on the elevator for themselves and one friend.
