In our history lessons in 3V we have been learning all about the Ancient Egyptians. This week, we looked at how the Ancient Egyptians looked after their dead.
We learnt that the Ancient Egyptians believed that the body should be preserved as well possible, so that the soul could recognise the body when the two were reunited in the afterlife.
We looked at all the grisly details of the mummification process and then acted out the mummification for ourselves. We had brilliant fun mummifying a pupil and going through all the necessary steps to ensure that he was beautifully preserved!
