We have really started to become Egyptologists this week. We have collected an amazing number of resources to help us find out more. They range from books, models, pictures on papyrus, jig-saw puzzles, post-cards and photographs. Each and everyone has fascinated and interested us.
We became newspaper reporters imagining what might have been written in the newspaper on the day Tutankhamen's tomb was discovered by Howard Carter. Imagine our delight to then go on the internet and see a film taken on that day.
Learning about all the items in that tomb has developed our understanding of the beliefs and lives of the Ancient Egyptians.
We have loved reading all the books and learning how people were made into mummies after they died.
We have done other interesting things too. We observed how some foods melt when heated in our science lesson. Not all our predictions were right.
We also started to learn the steps of the country dances for our May Celebration!!
So another busy week in Year 3. We are all looking forward now to a long weekend!
