3rd
graders learned about Ancient Egypt through a short video. They learned that
Egyptians believe in an afterlife when they die. To prepare the body for the
afterlife the deceased body goes through a mummification process. Once the body
is turned into a mummy, it is placed into Sarcophagus that holds the body for
the rest of eternity. The Sarcophagus’s were works of art themselves encrypted
with hieroglyphs and pictures.
3rd
graders did a great job designing their Egyptian Sarcophagus. Students also
wrote their names in hieroglyphics down the center of their sarcophagus.
