On Thursday, as part of their topic on Ancient Egypt,  Hedgehogs class had their very own Egyptian Day. They came to school in amazing costumes and spent the day coming up with theories about how the pyramids were built (after anaylising some historical pictures). They then were challenged to build pyramids with spaghetti for which the children needed all of their ACE particles, particularly perseverance. The Hedgehogs class had already learned about the mummification process through guided reading so they then mummified oranges using salt and sodium bicarbonate to turn their skins nice and leathery just like a mummy! In the afternoon, they created death masks using Tutunkahmen as their inspiration. What a wonderful day of ACE learning and fun!
