Today we followed the steps to create our own mummy! First we had to hook the brain and remove it, then put the other organs in canopic jars. Next we dried the bodies with salt and spices. Then we wrapped the body in linen strips. Finally we added a death mask and put them into their sarcophagus! 🐫⚱️
This week Miss McCartney taught us how to code using Scratch Jnr. We followed her steps to make our character move around in space. We then had a chance to create our own designs. 👨💻📱🐱

And lastly we enjoyed chopping up our own fruit using the bridge technique to assemble our own yogurt cups! We finished today with the lovely news that we were assembly class of the week again and had an extra playtime! 🍓🥏🏓
Next we started our new topic about significant individuals in science and technology by learning about Isaac Newton and how he discovered gravity! We then learned about “drag” and made parachutes to try slow down the speed our cups would be pulled down to the ground! 🪂
Then it was Halloween time 🎃 We wrote spooky Halloween poems and showed off our costumes! To finish the day we had a party and went dooking for apples 🍎
Miss McMillan keeps forgetting to post our pictures so strap in folks! 📷 We were very proud of our Charlie and the Chocolate Factory display which shows all of our hard work from our book study! 🍫
