The Blog Workshop this week was really interesting. We had great fun learning about Ancient Egyptian mummies and we also made our own mummies online which was a bit disgusting! (Extracting brains and organs!!)

The theme was Magic & Mystery and we had a “mystery guest”. His name is Joshua and he performed a magic show for us in English!!! It was very good and we were impressed and amazed by his tricks. Thanks again Joshua, and thank you to all of you who attended.

Now you don’t have to be a great artist to make a comic, as on the internet there are websites that allow you to create your own comics. Click on the links below to make yours.
