Here's the latest from the Ancient Egypt wiki...

Do we only know about them (the Ancient Egyptians) from hieroglyphics on papyrus paper?

Have a look here and add your own findings to our class knowledge.

Easter and Songkran

Dear 3W,

Do you remember the school in Australia which wanted to find out how we celebrate Easter?

Well I said that most Thai people celebrate Songkran.
I know that some of you celebrate Easter as well.

Please have a look at their wiki here:

Have a look at how Easter is celebrated in Israel. Did you know what the Ceremony of Passover is?

You cannot add to this wiki. but instead could you please reply to this email with a sentence or two about How you celebrate Easter or Songkran.

I would also like to do some learning in class about this.

Have a good weekend.

Tonight's homework

Please have a go at the multiplication activities on mymaths.co.uk.

Have you seen Punn's story?

Have you read Punn's story?

Have a look here on the class wiki.

She's written a really exciting mystery story.

Could you write your own one?

Adventure stories on the wiki?

I've just set up a page on the wiki for us to store any adventure stories you have written and edited.

Go here to go to the wiki, then log in and paste in your edited story.

I will then be able to set up a new page for you.

Then readers from the class can read and help you edit the story.

3W authors, get writing!
