Continuing our history topic: The Ancient Egyptians https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zg87xnb/articles/z4m8pg8

What did the ancient Egyptians believe in? This lesson teaches about the gods that the Egyptians believed in.

You’ve already been on a ‘god-hunt’ (given as a Seesaw activity –

check it out, if you haven’t already). You can extend your learning by

finding out about the afterlife and the delightful (!) process of

mummification using this link:

There are two downloads to print off this week for history:

Seesaw Activity of the Week

‘Ancient Egyptian Art Museum’ has been chosen for you this week.

Although museums are now open, you can have a virtual trip around this

section of a museum which shows artefacts and evidence, helping our

understanding of ancient Egypt.

Geography

Take a look at Sir David Attenborough teaching about the world and

maps on the following link: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p08gdffy/bitesize-911-year-olds-week-7-2-

maps (section 14:39 – 16:20)

Research using an atlas or an online atlas to locate as many different

European countries as you can on the download map of Europe provided

to print off. You can extend the task by continuing to label more countries

beyond the 15 requested. Perhaps you’ve visited some of them?

PSHE

Although this pandemic has been a challenging

time for everyone, there have been many

positives and the goodness of human nature

has been very evident, thankfully! Have a think

of some of the positives that have come out of

lockdown for you…Record them on the print-off

sheet provided.

Thursday’s Bitesize is all about

Singing and Well Being so do join

in and Keep Smiling!

Takeaway Learning

Outdoors activity: On the theme of maps

have a go at mapping an

outdoor space, such as

your garden. Hide some
