What can we put in Canopic Jars?

Date: 20th Oct 2022 @ 10:37am

This term we have been learning all about Ancient Egypt. As part of this the children have been learning how to mummify a dead body. This week they have written a set of instructions to help people mummify a body successfully. In DT the children learned all about Canopic Jars and what Egyptians put inside them during the mummification process. They then designed their own canopic jar and have used water bottles and modrock to make their own designs. The children then painted their jars once the modrock set and have used their colour mixing skills to add details. On Friday we will be showcasing our creations to the Year 4 students!
