Year 3 became embalmers for the afternoon:

Mummifying Tomatoes!

Today, the children experienced the mummification process by mummifying a tomato!

First, the children made observations of the tomato and then made a small incision to reach the innards.

They then used a small spoon to remove the seeds and juices (this is equivalent to the organs in Egyptian mummies).

The tomato was cleaned with antibacterial sanitiser and then dried.

Finally, the tomato was packed with and surround by salt (natron).

We will look at the tomatoes in two weeks to see if our mummification was successful!
