Abstract	This teacher resource packet provides information, techniques, and a series of lesson units designed to introduce students to ancient Nubia through works of art found in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Massachusetts. The packet consists of three curriculum units based upon aspects of ancient Nubian life or culture. These units are: "Discovering the Past"; "Kings and Queens"; and "The Shape of Nubian Art." The units were developed to prepare students for and build on corresponding gallery visits to the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, but the materials may be adapted for independent use. Each unit is subdivided into three lesson units focus on selected objects in the museum collection and outline projects may be done before, during, and after the museum visit. Eighteen black and white reproductions of the discussed art works are provided, along with background information explaining each art object. A series of questions encourage student description, interpretation, and creative response to the works of art. Reproducible "Discovery Sheets" provide a range of interdisciplinary activities that students can complete either on their own or in small groups. These activities require students to gather information, develop observation and comparison skills, and encourage reflection upon connections between the art and culture of ancient Nubia and contemporary experiences. Suggestions for further reading conclude the resource. (MM)
