Your task at hand is to read the papers that Rafi the Embalmer has left for you and learn about mummification.  Throughout your time reading and comprehending the papers he has left for you, there will be several tasks to see if you have understood what his papers are stating.  

You will begin by familiarizing yourself with what a mummy is, and the reasons behind why Ancient Egyptians mummified their dead.  

Your first task will ask that you create a detailed list of why Ancient Egyptians mummified their dead.  


As you further your investigation about the act of mummification you will stumble across information pertaining to the process which is used to mummify the dead.  After doing so, you will then complete a sequencing activity on the steps used in mummification.  


Last, but not least, you will be able to compare the process of mummification in Ancient Egypt with that of the process in which is used today in the United States, and complete a Venn Diagram.  


Through the duration of your learning journey do not hesitate to use the resources provided for you to successfully complete each task.  Your mission is to learn as much as you can about mummies and possibly become a master embalmer, just like Rafi.
