...In the first video Small Group Oral Language Sample for Early Childhood Education the first level of thinking I noticed was that of Knowledge(Evaluating) because the task in which the teacher was presenting require different cognitive strategies. The teacher showed students a picture of the block center as well as the art center. She then demonstrated her purpose of the picture to the student by pulling a marker out of the bag asking them where they think it should go. After the teacher saw that the student had grasp the concept of knowledge she provided each of them the opportunity to collect an item from the bag. Meanwhile, during the process of small group the teacher ask question about other selected item the children used that also required them to think. The students developed their knowledge of different learning and thinking strategies as well as their use. In the second videoTechnology in Early Childhood Family Education Classrooms the next level of thinking I noticed was Analyzing where the teacher used the smart board of breaking knowledge into components and determine the relationship of the components to one another such as the schedule that required the students to think about green choices at circle time that require the students to come uo and find their name, and how they related to the overall structure of holding their attention for half an hour where they come up and do and hear things on the smart board.

...tutankhamen theory By Lavonda Adkins Professor: Leonard Lowe HUM 111 February 2, 2014 THE TOMB King Tut’s tomb was discovered in November 1922, it is said to have been undisturbed for over 3,000 years. There was a rumor that engraved on the exterior of King Tut’s Tomb was the warning, “Death Shall Come on Swift Wings To Him Who Disturbs the Peace of the King”. This did not deter anyone from unearthing this wondrous sight. THE THEORY Tutankhamen became a king at the tender age of eight or nine years old, he was the ruler of Egypt. As ruler his reign only lasted roughly around ten years before his untimely demise. He passed away in his late teens. No cause of death was listed for him as there was no real reason that may have caused the young rulers death. The theories I have found for the cause of Tutankhamen’s death are as follows. THEORY ONE For many years scientists have used every available source of technology in an effort to determine the cause of King Tut’s death. There have been many theories named and many proved wrong. It is not easy to fathom that such an existence and death could not be determined by now. One theory listed is that maybe King Tut died of blunt force trauma, caused by a skull crushing blow to the back of the head. Many believe that his murder happened during his tenth year of his reign while there was a war raging in Egypt. The Egyptians were at war with the Hittites. Could it have been an enemy that murdered this king? Friend...

...The Golden throne of Tutankhamen is one of splendor. Found in by archeologist Howard Carter in the Valley of the Kings. The year was 1922. Most other tombs had been found by grave robbers and emptied of their treasure. The placement of king Tut’s tomb made the discovery possible. Hidden beneath the tomb of Ramses VI the tomb was discovered. Many treasures were in disarray with in the rooms. The throne itself was found in the antechamber of the tomb. I chose the throne because of the story this artwork reveals about the Pharaoh and the time of his reign. The material for the throne is surprising. While at first glance it looks to be solid gold when in fact it is not. The throne is wood overlaid with gold, semi-precious stones and glass. This...

...There are several different theories as to how King Tutankhamun died. Some will argue he was murdered, while others believe he died from an illness. Due to the several theories that surround his death it is virtually impossible to pinpoint the exact cause of his death that occurred over 3,000 years ago. However the one fact that scientists and historians can agree about, is that the death of King Tutankhamun is one of the most fascinating mysteries to ever come out of Egypt and still intrigues scientists and historians to this day. Did King Tut die of an illness? According to researchers at Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities, a combination of bone disease and a malaria infection may have led to the young king’s untimely death. King Tut suffered from avascular bone necrosis, a condition where poor blood supply to the bone leads to a weakening or destruction of an area of bone. He also, along with three mummy’s identified as close relatives, suffered from malaria at some time in his life. Researches write that the bone condition alone would not cause death but in addition to a malaria infection, death is highly probable. "These results suggest avascular bone necrosis in conjunction with the malarial infection as the most likely cause of death of Tutankhamun”, (Covington, June 2005). Was it murder? One popular story that stands out is based on the theory that King Tut was murdered with a blow to the back of the head by a member of the royal court in order to inherit...

...Elongated heads, oval-shaped eyes, underbite jaws, malocclusion, big ears, and Androgynous looks were all taken as ordinary during most of Egyptian pharaohs’ dynasties. One prominent example is Akhenaten, whose representation on several images reflect his various physical disorders and syndromes. Just like Akhenaten, there were many other kings who shared similar characteristics, such as, his son Tutankhamen and Ramesses II. To begin with, Akhenaten’s son, Tutankhamen, shared very similar deformities and illnesses with his father. One of the reasons may be because of the uncontrollable factors both of them had in common, precisely, inbreeding. Tutankhamen suffered many deformities as early as the birthing stages, such as, club foot, an illness...

...head: MYSTERY OF TUTANKHAMEN DEATH Mystery of Tutankhamen Death Patience Williams Professor: Dr. Brook Beshah HUM 111 January 30, 2012 Abstract This paper unravels the mystery surrounding the death of Tutankhamen, an Egyptian Pharaoh of the 18th dynasty (1333 BC- 1323 BC in conventional chronology), a period in the history of Egypt regarded as the “New Kingdom” Hankey and Julie (2007). In addition, the paper discusses a brief history of Tutankhamen (the boy king of Egypt) who reigned for 10 years, the cause of his rather untimely death, which up to this day people continues to discuss with a certain degree of uncertainty. The paper accomplishes these tasks by providing a brief summary of some theories that might explain the mystery that surrounds Tutankhamen’s death. Finally, the paper identifies a particular theory out of many regarding Tutankhamen’s death that best explains the mystery of his death. Brief History Before discussing the mystery surrounding the death of Tutankhamen, it is important to know who he was and how and why he became the youngest pharaoh (king) in the history of Egypt and probably the entire world. According to Clayton (2006), Tutankhamen was the son Akhenaten, a former Pharaoh of the 18th dynasty of Egypt who ruled for 17 years and died probably around 1336 BC or 1334 BC. Tutankhamen who reigned for 10 years, became Pharaoh at the age of nine, but died at the age of 18. Historically, as a prince he was known as Tutankhamen, a name which...

...SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE SHOWS THAT KING TUTANKHAMEN DID NOT DIE OF NATURAL CAUSES - HE WAS MURDERED. ~KING TUT~ Tutankhamen, king of Ancient Egypt (often referred to as King Tut), died at the early age of around eighteen. To this day, his death remains a mystery that has brought many historians, Egyptologist and scientist to many theories as to how King Tut died. Two theories in particular are the theory that he succumbed to a broken leg that became infected, and the theory that he was murdered. The latter theory holds the most weight. In 1968, while performing an x-ray of Tutankhamen's mummy, scientist found bone fragments in his skull leading to the conclusion that he was murdered by blunt force trauma. (Lovgren, 2006.) However, later research lead some to say that the most famous pharaoh likely died of a leg injury which was complicated by bone disease, malaria and/or infection. (Tutankhamen CT scan Press Release, 2010.) The theory that the "boy king" had been murdered because of a hole in his head was ruled out and determined by many Egyptologist to have been the result of the mummification process. To be sure, homicide police in Ogden, Utah have been requested by a British film producer to apply modern forensics to the ancient case. According to their studies, they believe that they have proof of murder. Prominent Egyptologist, however, says that those conclusions are nonsense and based on hearsay. They argue that if in fact King Tut was murdered, then one would have...

...Assignment # 1 How did Tutankhamen die? Peter newman Dr. Norman Flowers Humanities 111 9th January 2012 Who was Tutankhamen? Before going any further we have to find out who was Tutankhamen. Tutankhamen (1346-1328), He was born at Akhetaten which was the capital city of Egypt. Tutankhamen was a pharaoh who produced little in his life and he did not increase Egypt’s borders or enjoy triumphant victories like the many pharaohs before him. However, he is the most recognized and probably the most famous pharaoh in the history of Egypt. He is so famous, because of the discovery of his tomb and his elaborate treasure. “Tutankhamen, named Tutankhamen early his life, was the 12th pharaoh of the eighteen dynasty of Egypt. He ruled from 1334-1323BC and lived ca. 1334-1323 BC, during the period knows as the new kingdom.” (www.crystalinks.com) His original name, Tutankhamen, meant “living image of Aten” while Tutankhamen meant “living image of Amum”. In historical terms, Tutankhamen is of only moderate significance, primarily as a figure managing the beginning of the transition from the heretical Atenism of his predecessor Akhenaten back to the familiar Egyptian region. (Www.Site-ology.com/Egypt/kt.htm). The most famous of all the kings found in the Valley of the Kings was Tutankhamen. During his tenth year ruling, Egypt was at war with Hittites. During this confrontation king Tutankhamen suddenly die. He died in the mid- January...

...King Tutankhamen Essay Christina Wells Professor Susan Galasso Humanities 111 July 24, 2013 King Tutankhamen King Tutankhamen is known to many as King Tut, the boy King of Egypt, the Boy King, The Boy Pharaoh, and Boy Pharaoh Tutankhamen. The mystery of the death of King Tutankhamen has never been completely resolved. Did his death happen due to illness? Or, was young King Tutankhamen murdered or was his death simply an accident? King Tutankhamen ruled Egypt as Pharaoh for 10 years until his death at age 19, around 1324 B.C. After his death at age 19, he disappeared from history until the discovery of his tomb in 1922. There are several different theories regarding the death of King Tutankhamen. Some historians seem to think that because a hole was found in the back of his skull that he was murdered, which through recent test was determine that the hole likely happened doing the traditional fashion of mummification. King Tutankhamen also had several different illnesses, one being a crippling bone disease in his clubbed left foot. King Tut was tall and physically frail his poor health could have also been the cause of his death. In the Egyptian royal family traditional inbreeding could have also played a role in his death along with the Kings’ poor health. There have been DNA tests published in 2010 that revealed that King Tutankhamen’s parents were brother and sister and that his wife, Ankhesenamun, was also his half-sister. Also...

...teenage pharaoh King Tut. The other theory is that King Tut was murdered by his advisor Ay. King Tutankhamun's mummy has been X-rayed three times, in 1968, 1978 and in 2005. (ancientegyptonline.co.uk) But these scans have not been able to confirm the cause of his death. The first theory is that King Tutankhamun was genetically inferior. In 2010 DNA tests published revealed that Tutankhamen’s parents were likely brother and sister. (www.history.com/topics/ancient-history/tutankhamen) This left King Tut with a bone disease in his clubbed left foot. It also made it difficult for King Tut to stand in the chariot while performing his Kingly duties. Theorist believe that King Tut may have crashed his chariot leaving him with a broken leg. (www.history.com/topics/ancient-history/tutankhamen) In 1995 CT scans showed that the king had an infected broken left leg and multiple malaria infections, all of which may have possibly contributed to the early death of King Tut.

...University World Cultures I Professor Leonard Lowe July 23, 2013 The topic that I chose to write about is the mystery surrounding the death of King Tutankhamen. There are many different theories as to how he died and all of them are controversial topics. Some will argue King Tut was likely murdered due to greed and power, while others believe he fell from his chariot or died from an illness (Kingtutone.com, 2010). Those that believed that he was murdered believed that this happened due to changes that Akhenaten (King Tut’s father) had made. Akhenaten had brought about a major change in Egypt when he started to push the idea of one god, and this concept went against everything Ancient Egyptians believed in. Other experts argue that King Tutankhamen died from malaria and osteonecrosis. Imaging results in a report, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, indicate that Tutankhamen had osteonecrosis of two metatarsal bones in one foot, according to the authors, and DNA evidence suggests that he was infected with the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. Still others say that the king died due to an infection. New CT scans performed on King Tut shows a broken leg that could have become infected and ultimately caused his death. I feel as King Tutankhamen was murdered maybe by one of his servants. Researchers say that it was a known fact that Akhenaten brought a major change in Egypt. He had pushed the idea of one god and...

...Assignment 1 Essay Bryan Smith Strayer University Dr. Hunsucker HUM111250GA063-1142-001 World Culture January 20, 2014 The cause of death of Tutankhamen still remain a mystery. Tutankhamen died young, around the age of 18. Tutankhamen (King Tut) was buried in a tomb discovered by an English archeologist named Howard Carter, on November 26, 1922. Inside the tomb lied King Tut within a quartzite sarcophagus- three separate coffins place one inside the other (Sayre, 2012). This essay includes scientific, historical, and other theories in how Tutankhamen died, includes two different theories and perspectives of how Tutankhamen died, and explain the theory of which of the two that is the most convincing towards the death of Tutankhamen. According to Archaeologist Chris Naunton, director of Egypt Exploration Society, learned that king tut body was burned. Chris discovered and studied the notes from Howard Carter and Carter assistant Lord Carnarvon (Carnarvon was also there at the discovery). The burning of the body was from the ritual of mummification of a king. Chris determined that King Tut died of an injury, driving a chariot to fast. The National geographic (2013) presume the king was maybe killed by a kick to the chest and ribs by a horse, since horses pulled the chariots. Both incidents sums the details up as which, King Tut died of an injury and not a disease or any other way. From the x-rays, CT scans, and other examinations King Tut died of an injury. The...

...Egzona Rexha Chapter 3 There are so many amazing pieces of art in this chapter. It really surprises me the way these pieces are detailed at such an early time period. I love the fact that they are all emperor type pieces, they show off great royalty and are seen that they are really valuable pieces. It’s interesting that antiques like this are still used for the wealthy and powerful today. Egypt has always been one of my most favorite places to visit because of the sculptures and art that I have seen. Looking through this chapter has only interested me more in visiting it someday. One of the most popular, but also my favorite, pieces of this chapter is the death mask of Tutankhamen, from the innermost coffin in his tomb at Thebes, Egypt, 18th dynasty, ca. 1323 BCE. Gold with inlay of semiprecious stones, 1’ 9 1/4’’ high. Egyptian Museum, Cario. (Page 79). The detail in this piece is miraculous. I am in love with the gold and royal blue coloring the way they compliment each other. Truly fit for a pharaoh, the smoothness and cleanliness of this piece is beautiful. The traditional false beard is patterned really interesting with a little rough marks, still holds the value of royalty. My favorite thing about this piece has to be the cobra headdress. I love the how the poisonous snake is positioned on the forehead, to me displaying the power and danger the pharaoh has throughout his role. Another interesting thing I thought was the make up that he is wearing, and the fact that...

...Week 4 Assignment 1 Tutankhamen HUM-111 Trudy Oglesby Professor Marcia Robinson Nov 6 2012 Tutankhamen Speculation has surrounded the death of King Tutankhamen ever since the discovery of his tomb. The questions have been asked, was he a victim of some sort of curse? Or could he have been affected by generations of in-breeding, which caused imperfection within his genes, or was he just a sickly man because in that time of the BC ages, a lot of men only lived to get in their early 30s. There are two strong theories, King Tutankhamen died from his illness and was he murder. King Tutankhamen has been described as a “frail boy" in need of a cane and found to have had the oldest genetic proof of malaria, this is the best theory surrounding his illness. There are quite a few theories that I have read about. But the experts found he had malaria and due to an infection he died not murder. They also found he had a crack on the skull along with a broken leg, which may have also been a contributing cause to his death. Some have even suggested that the King fell from his chariot while hunting (Ker Than, 2010). I choose to believe the King was murdered because there was so much at stake. And that the theory of Ay killed King Tut out of greed. In this theory, the motives behind his murder were substantial. He was the son of Akhenaton who changed the practice of worshiping many pagan gods to worshiping one god which was a new environment for the people...
