            How did people worship the gods and goddesses?

  The ancient Egyptians thought that it was very important to please
  the gods and goddesses. For that reason, worshipping the deities was
                  a large part of life in ancient Egypt.

     Some gods and goddesses were worshipped by the pharaoh and
  priests in large temples. These were the 'official' gods and goddesses
                 of the state, like Amun, Horus and Bastet.

   Other gods and goddesses were worshipped by ordinary people in
 their homes. These were the gods and goddesses like Bes and Tawaret
   who protected people from the dangers of daily life, like scorpion
                 bites, crocodile attacks and childbirth.
                                                                     5

There were more than 2000 gods in ancient Egypt. Most took human form but some had the
 heads of animals. Here is a selection of the more important gods that the Egyptians would
                                        have worshipped.

                      Ra was the most important god to all the Egyptians. Ra
                      was the god of the Sun and the lord of the gods.

                      The Egyptians also believed that Ra travelled through the
                      underworld at night, where he appeared as a man with the

                      GOD OF: the dead and the process of embalming

                      Anubis was the god of embalming, the mummification ritual.
                      It is believed he made the first mummy, Osiris.

                      Anubis was the guide of the dead, he helped them pass on
                      to the next life. It was said that Anubis would wait for you
                      in the Hall of the Dead to weigh your heart. If your heart
                      was lighter than Ma’at’s feather, you would live forever. If
                      it was heavier, your heart would be eaten by the demon,
                      Ammit. Anubis had the head of a jackal.

                     GOD OF: the dead and the underworld.

                     Osiris was also a god of death, resurrection and fertility. The
                     Egyptians believed that he gave them the gift of their most
                     important crop, barley.

                     Osiris was the husband of Isis and the father of Horus. He
                     was murdered by his jealous brother Seth and became the
                     lord of the Underworld.

                     He was well-known for his green coloured skin, the symbol of

                      Protector and ruler of Egypt. All living pharaohs were
                      considered a ‘living Horus’.

                      It was believed that Horus was the son of Isis and Osiris.

                      Horus became a ruler of the living after losing an eye in a
                      battle and having it restored. The eye then became a
                      symbol of protection.

                      Horus has the head of a hawk which makes him look similar

                          Isis is the wife of Osiris. Each pharaoh of the time was
                          considered a ‘living Horus’ so she was very important as
                          their wife.

                          She is also the mother of Horus and has him sitting on her
                          lap.

                          Isis is the queen of the goddesses. Sometimes she is shown
                          to have a throne on her head and other times she has a

                      of hieroglyphs.

                      Thoth was the god of wisdom, writing, time and the
                      Moon. The ancient Egyptians believed that Thoth created
                      hieroglyphics and kept a record of all knowledge. He has
                      the head of an ibis bird, a long-beaked bird commonly

                     NAME: Set

                     GOD OF: chaos, the desert and storms.

                     Set is the son of Geb and Nut. He is the father of the jackal-headed
                     god Anubis.

                     Set represented everything that threatened peace in ancient Egypt,
                     such as war, disease and destruction.

                     Set is seen as a strong and dangerous god but not completely evil. He
                     is a friend to the dead, helping them rise to heaven on his ladder.

                     The Egyptians saw Seth as the god of darkness, chaos and the

                     NAME: Hathor

                     GOD OF: love, music and dance

                     In ancient Egyptian religion and mythology, Hathor was the
                     goddess of love, fertility, beauty, music, and laughter and fun.

                     Besides being really important she was very complicated too.
                     She is one of the oldest known gods of Egypt. She was very
                     nice and nurturing, looking after people all the time. As she
                     had this kindness in her, people often linked her to Isis, the
                     mother goddess, but Hathor was also all about destruction.

                     According to one myth, the sun god Ra, in his old age, decided

Pleasing the gods and goddesses was incredibly important in the lives of Ancient
Egyptians. For that reason, worshipping the deities (gods) was a large part of life in
ancient Egypt.

Keeping life in balance, Ancient Egyptians believed in more than 2,000 deities. They had
gods for everything, from dangers to chores, and each had different responsibilities.

Some gods and goddesses were worshipped by the pharaoh and priests in large
temples. These were the 'official' gods and goddesses of the state, like Amun, Horus
and Bastet. Other gods and goddesses were worshipped by ordinary people in their
homes. These were the gods and goddesses like Bes and Tawaret who protected people
from the dangers of daily life, like scorpion bites, crocodile attacks and childbirth. 25

         to convince the reader to agree with the author.

       For the modelled example we have written, our point of

                    God is the most important?’

         Horus is the most important Ancient Egyptian God
                                                                  27

L.O: To consider the changes next year will bring
 Moving to secondary school is a big step and can seem a bit scary. You could be
 worried about leaving our school that you know really well.

 You might find that there are more buildings and that everything seems bigger
 than Knaphill School but you'll find your way round in no time.

 Whether you're going to walk there or get the bus or train, getting to your new
 school can seem tricky at first but within a few weeks it will be second nature!

 Have a look at the questions on the next slide.

 You might just want to think about the
 answers in your head or jot some notes down.                                 39

                                      Worries

  It is really natural to be worried about things we don’t know. You probably have
    lots of questions and concerns about next year – but guess what? Most of
                you are probably all thinking and feeling the same things!

  Jot down some ideas of things you are worried about. Over the next few
  weeks, we will be thinking these questions.

                                 On the next slide are the
                                most common answers we
