Shazmeen's mummified



On Friday I saw two people, one was a priest and one was a wealthy egyptian lady, they told us about mummies and gods. Afterwards we put on costume and make-up.

We went into the galleries later and looked at mummies. I saw an unwrapped mummy which had pots around her. I also saw more pottery and jewellery.

After lunch we saw a video about egyptian archaeology, people who worked in Egypt in the tombs. Afterwards we looked at objects and we had to put them in order - old to modern - with the help of written descriptions.

On Monday we drew pictures of objects in the galleries. We had scrap books which we then stuck our pictures in.

We had our lunch outside the British Museum. After lunch I played a game with my friends and sister.

Katharine a lady from the museum talked to us about mummies. She talked about how they were buried in pyramids. She said that films showed lots of mazes in side but she said this was not true.

We made a little pyramid book and made a papyrus scroll.On Tuesday I went to clc and I was on the computer.After we had a brake and then we was on the computer.After lunch we went on the computer until home time
