Tomb Painting
















1.















2. 3.

Our journey through Story of the World has really taken a mind of its own. The kids have loved exploring Epypt and have been initiated all kinds of games and activities. We read a chapter of the book...and they are off on their own creating, writing plays, dressing up. Today we put paper on the wall to paint our own tomb. Ben's (#1) has his escophagus, a picture showing he was a great leader, Osiris, peace in the land, a god who is a girl and her cat and Ahum Ra the sun god.
Aria (#2) painted the ancient colors, they are very old, they came from the first sky out in the backyard.
Elias' (#3) is about the sun god and his enemy the rain god whose name is Stripes. In Elias' time this god was the most important and everyone believed in it.
