Ancient Egypt

This term our topic was Ancient Egypt. We learned about lots of thing like mummies. We learned that the Egyptians stuck a hook type thing us dead peoples noses and into the brain and whisked the brain until it was liquid and it poured out the nose they then stuffed where the brain would be with sawdust. They removed all the organs except the heart because they thought it was the source of wisdom, emotions and memory and the kidneys because it was too hard to get to. The rest of the organs got put in separate jars.

We also had to make a double page of information about a chosen topic, I picked pharaohs. A pharaohs is the ruler or king of Egypt. The pharaohs had many duties like praying and offering stuff to their god. We put into groups based on what we did for our double page spread, I was with Sharon, Imogen and Sam V. We had to make a power point on pharaohs and an activity with the information that was in the power point. For our activity we did a game show called 'who wants to be an Egyptianaire'. This topic was really fun.


 What did you do for your double page spread?
