Investigate at The Collection, Lincoln

Today we had a fabulous day at The Collection, Lincoln, exploring further our theme of Ancient Egypt. Over the day we took part in 6 different activities and each one was brilliant. We were able to bring home what we had made in the craft sessions. Our 6 activities were:
- drama (acting out the story of Osiris)
- the big dig (becoming archaeologists and digging for artefacts) 
- drawing on papyrus
- making our own amulet
- making a sarcophagus
- a tour of the museum

Here are some photos of our activities. We were divided into groups with children from Osprey class also.
