We wer We were inspired by Zuzia’s fantastic King Tut symmetry picture. We all tried to create a drawing where one half was a mirror image of the other. We needed to research online and in books to copy the sarcophagus. We then painted it using shiny acrylic paints. We think they look great!

New Skills in ICT
Today we used our research to write a factfile using Word. We learned how to open Word, select a font and a font size, use the bold and the underline then practised our keyboard skills. Mrs Oglesby showed us how to have two or three windows open on our screen so we could work between our document and websites. This was useful when copying and pasting images and checking our facts. We then named and saved our work for next time.
Egyptian research
We got in to cooperative learning groups and took on research roles to find out about different gods and goddesses. We used books, online resources and articles to find out as many pieces of information as we could. We created large posters to share our learning.
ICT
We’ve enjoyed using the brand new laptops in class. We’ve been using Pivot Animator, doing Egyptian research, using a hieroglyphic translator and playing maths games.
