Year 3 (Class 11) - Design Technology - Mummification

Class 11 have been looking at the Ancient Egyptians this half term. After our visit to the Leeds Museum, and seeing a primary source of information with the mummy, we have decided to try and make our own (using tomatoes). 

We scooped out the insides, but  decided not to put them in canopic jars, and covered them in natron, a mix of salt and bicarbonate odd soda. We have left one half to the elements and leaving one half for a week to compare the results.
