More Exploration of Ancient Egypt

Second grade continues to explore all things ancient Egyptian!  We are immersed in a variety of reading and projects that connect to this intriguing study and help us build our knowledge about this time and place in history.   We are learning about the many Gods and Goddesses worshipped, specific details about the process of making a mummy and reading many great stories.

Here is a link to the British Museum's website.  There is a section about gods & goddesses as well as other information.  http://www.ancientegypt.co.uk/menu.html
