🗺️ Trade Routes & Treasures Expedition

Students rotate through clue stations around the classroom featuring enlarged maps, images of gold, ivory, papyrus, and grain, short primary-source excerpts, and mystery scenario cards about Egypt and Kush. In teams, they decode clues to identify major Nile features, deserts, cataracts, and possible trade routes. The experience culminates in a whole-class reveal connecting geography to trade patterns.
