I want my mummy!

Wow, we have been so busy this week. On Monday, we did some headlines for the discovery of King Tut's tomb. We made sure they were short and snappy, some of us used alliteration.
'Tomb of Doom!'
'Magnificent Mummy!'
'Gods Guard Gold!'
'Marvel at Magnificent Mummy!'

We also did some guided reading and later on, we learnt how to draw in proportion in art.
On Tuesday we had fun, doing some mummyfing. We were split into groups to practise the mummification process.  First we washed the body, then we put a slit in the side. After that, we pulled the brain out with a hook and took all of the organs out, but we left the heart in.
Then we filled and covered the body with natron to dry it out.  Once that was complete, we washed it and wrapped it in bandages.  Then we placed on the fake eyes and decoarated it with amulets.  Here are some of the pictures:

On Wednesday we did some swimming, some of us practised breast stroke, and push and glide.  Mr Rothwell came with us and he got splashed - hahahahaha! 

On Thursday we went on Purple Mash and it was fun! You can take funny photos with the MashCam, you can do an animation slide show, you can colour a photo of things, you can create your own monster and more.  We are going on it at the weekend!

We used the MashCam to take a picture of our face inside a Pharaoh!!!

On Friday, we wached class 4W's assemberley, it was about the body. We also did guided reading, we also practiced a bit of our class assemberley but it is a surprise so we can't say anything about it yet. Then we did some map work on Egypt and found the River Nile and the Capital city and other special places.
