Hieroglyphics


This term our Unit of Inquiry is Write It Down. We have been learning about communication.


This week, we have been learning about hieroglyphics.                                                        
We have learnt that there is a rock with three languages in Egypt.                                        
We have also learnt how to solve riddles in hieroglyphics, as well as our names, some sentences and our   teachers’ names.                                                                                       
Aria bought in some Egypt writing and the first sentence we solved, was Simon!                
We also learnt that in Egypt they worshiped cats!                                                                   
In Egypt they write from right to left,and it was pretty special to write because it was so hard.                                                                                                                                        
They also have a symbol that they used to think was protecting them! We are learning a lot about hieroglyphics and hope to learn even more! :)
