As the narrator explains the Ancient Egyptian beliefs in the Sun God, a reconstruction of a pharaoh and her soldiers is seen in the Egyptian desert. The pyramids were built so the Sun God could be reborn in the afterlife, as explained on the pyramid texts. The Egyptians believed the unchanging position of the stars was the location of the afterlife, which determined the way they constructed the Great Pyramid.

Students could be presented with an Egyptian pharaoh, real or made up. Students could be challenged with designing a pyramid for this pharaoh. Before beginning their design they will have to research their leader. This could be through internet and reference book searches, or if a made up pharaoh is being used they could pose questions for the teacher to answer. They could then create a design drawing with labels to describe special features and construction methods. Students could then present these to the class.
