This week we have been working on our Ancient Egyptians topic.\u00a0 We have been writing hieroglyphs for our hand writing – it is great fun but a very slow way to write.<\/p>\n

We have been working on our maths using the number system that the Ancient Egyptians used.\u00a0 It is really tricky, we managed to write the date quite easily but adding up Ancient Egyptian numbers was really challenging.<\/p>\n

We had a fabulous trip to the Museum of Scotland where we visited the newly opened Ancient Egypt Gallery.\u00a0 We saw lots of lovely artifacts and exhibits.\u00a0 Our favourites were the canopic jars (Emily ), the mummies ( Kyle), the hieroglyphic slabs (Emily C) and the bust of Nefertiti (Oscar).<\/p>\n
