Visiting the Penn Museum

Last week, the second grade classes had the opportunity to visit the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. This much anticipated trip connected to our winter long study of ancient Egypt and allowed students to see many of the artifacts they have read and talked about in person!  Mummies, statues, amulets and jewelry were just some of the highlights of this great trip.  Ask any second grade student to tell you about their favorite!
