A persons social class or status is mostly defined by the work he or she does. The jobs people do may affect their place in society. Why do you think some jobs have a higher status than others? Which jobs do you think have the highest status in our society today? (Turn and talk)

Most societies have different social classes, can anyone give an example of a social order discussed in our previous units??

Egypt was home to about 5 million people and each took on a different role which reflected their social status. Who can remember some of the other jobs/occupations people of Egypt had?
