P3/4 this week
This week in topic we continued to learn about how the people lived in Ancient Egypt. We found out that they had ovens, fridges and even toilets! Although not as we know them today. We also learned that Ancient Egypt got so big and wealthy that when they conquered lands they would take all the wealth from that country and bring it back to Egypt. This included gold, jewels and people! The people would become part of Egyptian society, soldiers, scribes or slaves. We also continued to practise our Assembly and get the costumes ready!
The children are looking forward to performing this on Friday 18th at 9:30.
In maths we started to work on 3D shape, revised the names of some shapes and started to look at the properties, including faces, corners and edges.
The children said this week …
Ellie – we learned that the Ancient Egyptians had ovens and fridges.
Niamh – we learned that there were toilets in Ancient Egypt.
Aiste – we learned about dividing by 7.

Primary 3/4
This week we started to present the information we gathered about the Pharaohs. We didn’t get through everyone, but we will and then display the information in our class museum. We also learned about the Ancient Egyptian writing of hieroglyphics. Then we used these to write out our own names in a cartouche, the same as the Pharaohs. As our assembly is now only weeks away, we have started to listen to the songs we will be singing and soon we will be learning our lines and parts for the play!
The children liked …
Evan, Robbie, – Starting learning dividing by 6.
Liam, Lauchlin, Zak, Faith – painting the canopic jars.
Aiste – the Egyptian writing.
