Download this image of the Louvre Museum in Paris, France and try out some of these suggestions for classroom activities with your students:
  • Pyramids are long known to be a significant symbol of Egyptian culture, but what about the Pyramid at the Louvre Museum? You're a detective and it's you job to investigate why the famous architect, IM Pei, chose this design as the official entrance to the museum.
  • What does this image remind you of?
  • If you were to design the entrance to The Louvre, what would yours look like?
  • Take a virtual tour of the Louvre.

We'd love to hear your ideas! If you've done a lesson on The Louvre Museum, IM Pei or Paris, France and have any ideas for the classroom, let us know in the comments section!
