Primary 3 and 3/2 have been learning about what a sarcophagus is and what the Egyptians used them for. We learned that after the mummification process, the body is placed in a sarcophagus and then put in a tomb.

We then decided to make our own sarcophagus. First we thought about what design we would like on the top of our sarcophagus and drew them on our sarcophagus design sheet. Next we copied the design onto a template of a sarcophagus. Then we cut out our sarcophagus templates and scored along the dotted lines. Finally we stuck all the parts together.

We think they look amazing 🙂
