Weston Park Museum

Today, we have visited Weston Park Museum in Sheffield to learn more about Ancient Egypt. 
We first looked at the Bronze Age to see how they lived. We then linked this with Ancient Egypt as this happened during the same time period so it made it easier for us to compare topics. When looking at Ancient Egypt, we looked at different artefacts from the time and we even saw two sarcophaguses with mummies inside. We then tried to use evidence from the artefacts to look at how they lived.  

Later on, we looked more closely at the mummification process and tried to make our own Ancient Egypt artefacts to take home. The children have really enjoyed the day out to Weston Park and have learnt loads about Ancient Egypt. Have a look below to see what they got up to.
