In this picture I can see some imagines from people `s life
during the Ancient Egypt period.
In these three pictures I can see how the Egyptians were writing, horses racecourses and seeding the ground.
These things we are still using today.
I think that this picture was painted to let us know how they have lived during that time.
Ana-Maria.
I can see Egyptian people with horses. They are taking the horses somewhere. I think they are going to the nearby village to take people on a horse ride. there are still fire in people's houses. This picture is painted because it reminds people of Egyptians.
ReplyDeleteI can see a man holding a stick and another man is making a horse pull a chariot and another man is sitting in another chariot pulled by two horses. There are also some hieroglyphs carved into some rock. I think the person with a stick is a priest and he is praying, the person sitting in the chariot is an important person and the last person is ploughing the fields with the horse and chariot. In a way we do use the chariots but we replaced the horses with an engine and wheels and we have attached a hood.We have also put a windscreen in the front and back. I think the picture was painted like a time capsule because then people could see what the Ancient Egyptians made and they could match the things then and the things now.
ReplyDeleteReally fascinating
DeleteIn the picture I can see three horses, three people and two chariots. I can also see hieroglyphics and a tombstone.
ReplyDeleteI think that there is a man who buries people when they die. I can also see two men riding chariots pulled by horses. They could be racing each other or the horses could be pulling important people. We still use chariots and horses these days to help as a way of transport.
I think this picture was painted to show that Egyptians were farmers and had horses and chariots.
I can see Egyptian people in the picture and it seems like they are attaching ropes to horses there aren't things that we still use today. I think this picture was painted because it is showing what they must of used in the Egyptian time.
ReplyDeleteHi reham how are. What's happened in your new school

DeleteExplanation about the picture from British Museum
ReplyDelete---------------------------------------------------
There are three men. One man is walking, and the other man is walking as well but he is carrying a horse with him. The third man is sitting in a carriage and two horses are pulling the carriage. Also in the left corner, I can see some hieroglyphics so I think this picture has come from Egypt. I think that the three men are travelling are in very different ways. I think we still use some horses that are pulling carriages in some places but not much (mostly cars). I think this is Egyptian picture was painted to show what are all the other different ways to travel except from driving a car or going on an aeroplane or riding a bike, scooter or motorbike. Also, it does show how the people travelled in the olden days. I also know that this is an Egyptian painting because it has hieroglyphics on it and the painting is painted on a papyrus which is a type of Egyptian paper.

In the first picture it looks like a man is reading some information, abit like a manual. In the second picture it looks like the man is building a chariot to attach to his horse. A chariot is a type is carriage driven by someone using horses to provide motive power . Chariots were used for hunting, racing or as a conveniently fast way of travel. In the third picture the man is setting off on his journey, in his carriage, with his horses. I think this picture was painted to show how thing were done in those days. It may of even been part of a story.
ReplyDeleteI see three men with a chariot who seem to be fixing it.Looks like Romans times. One of the guys is writing somthing with a tool on the wall. we still use chariots for funerals and weddings. in Ireland they use it alot. In romans time they never used it for transport manily for a miltary weapons. SORAN
ReplyDeleteI can see initially people were travelling to different places by walk. Then they started making Tom-tom. toms-toms are still used today. I think the picture is painted to grow people's knowledge about the history
ReplyDeleteIn the painting from the British museum,I can see a man with a stick,a man pulling the string to make the horse move and a man with two horses attached to the carriage so people can travel.
ReplyDeleteI can see the wheels in the carriages Which is still in use such as buses,cars and trains.The picture was painted because in the British museum there is an art gallery so some ancient people painted these pictures so everyone can have a look at them.
In the bottom and top left there is a man with his left hand in front of his mouth and the other holding a long staff which has a curved top, he is wearing a white cloth around his waist and there is ancient writing in the top left corner of the picture,this looks like asking/thanking. In the top right there is a man who is ploughing with a black horse which shows that they used horses rather than bulls. In the bottom right corner there is a man who I think is getting water from a well and transporting it using two white horses. In this picture, the only thing we use now are horses. I think this picture was created by Egyptians and made for thanking/begging god for food.
ReplyDeleteI can see a man pulling a and ridding a horse. I can see a man with a stick to get meat and fur from mammoths even their blood to do paintings.I think they are trying to make a plan that they are going somewhere.We still use horse chariots today for police and instead for a car.I think this is saying as a plan to go on vacation or to hunt.
ReplyDeleteI can see a daily basic routine by the Egyptians:working in the land planting seeds like wheat ,using horses to help them to prepare the land.Also using chariots as a transport.I see also their traditional clothes.They use hieroglyphs as a way to communicate.
ReplyDeletei can see three people one holding a long hook and 2 on there horses i think they painted this because these are three famous people we only horses today theres also symbols at the top of the 3 people the men are'nt on the horses they put the a wheel down behind there leg and using a stick on them they also painted this to show there wasnt electristy in those days and if you where in that day you wouldnt be able to watch television. Theres a two headed horse in the picture. The 3 people are maybe going somewhere but 1 without a horse and need's to walk to get where he wants to go the ones with the horses are maybe going in the same place or maybe separated places.
ReplyDeleteI can see a painting on a piece of broken wall, a rusty dirty pot, three men, three horses, a tree and finally a chart.
ReplyDeleteI think a young boy is being carried by the two tired horses. I also think I see an old man drinking water from a fountain. Next I see a man riding a horse cart.
We still use the carts, pots, trees and charts.
I think the picture was painted because it would tell us about the olden times.
I can see two men working on a farm with three horses and one men looking at the old Ancient Egyptian writing. I think that the men are working hard. One men is trying to see what is on the stone so he can do his own writing. On really poor farms we still use horses to help them in the mud. I think that the picture was painted because a men wanted to give it to the museum in the Ancient Egyptian space.
ReplyDeleteTHESE ARE HYROGRIPHS
DeleteI can see a man riding a horse kart.Also there is something in wrote in hieroglyphics.I think this is happening there are people traveling by the horse kart.There is a old man drinking water from the River Nile.There is not really much we use but there two things we use they are:Rivers and horses.I think this picture was painted when Egyptian maybe carved it or they had a paper called papyrus which is a plant from the River Nile which has been weaved and sowed.

ReplyDeleteI think people are riding horses.
There are horses,carts and people that we still see today.
This picture was painted because this might of happended in the olden days
Goldilocks and the Three Bears
ReplyDeleteOne beautiful day Goldilocks woke up and was hungry. She went downstairs to look in the kitchen to find her mum, but she wasn’t there. So she went for a walk to the woods.
There she saw a little cottage. She went inside the cottage as the door was open. When she walked inside she saw a chair and a TV. She went to go sit down in the big chair but it was too high. Then she went to try and sit on the medium chair but it was too bouncy. Then she saw a baby chair and sat on it and it was just right. As Goldilocks was too heavy for the chair the chair broke.
Then she walked to the kitchen where she saw 3 bowls of porridge. She tried the big bowl but it was too hot and was too lumpy. Then she tried the medium bowl but it was less lumpy then the first one but too cold. Then she tried the small bowl which was absolutely perfect, she ate it all up.
After eating the porridge Goldilocks started to feel sleepy. She went upstairs and found 3 beds. She tried the biggest bed but it was too hard. Then she tried the medium bed but it was too uncomfortable. Then she tried the small bed which was so soft and warm. Goldilocks fell asleep.
The house belonged to the 3 bears. They came back from their walk. When they walked into the tv room, daddy bear said, “someone has been sitting in my chair”. Then mummy bear said “someone has sat in my chair”, and finally baby bear said “someone has broken my chair”. Daddy bear was very upset as that used to be his chair when he was young.
They were all hungry so they went in the kitchen to eat their porridge. Daddy bear said “someone has tried my porridge”, mummy bear said “someone has tried my porridge too” and then baby bear said “someone has eaten all my porridge”.
After this all the three bear were very sleepy so they went up the staircase to the bedroom. Daddy bear looked at his bed and said “whose been sleeping in my bed?” mummy bear said “look how untidy my bed is, whose been sleeping in my bed” and then baby bear said “look there is somebody sleeping in my bed”.
Just then Goldilocks woke up and saw the big mean face of the bears. They all growled a mighty growl and Goldilocks ran all the way home and the bears never saw her ever again.
