cuneiform tablets.

Last week the children and I made cuneiform tablets for history. This is the way the Sumerians wrote. They each got to write there names out and then put a picture of something on it too. We then wrote there names in english so they could see the english letters next to the cuneiform ones.

We used a baking clay I made and then baked it in the oven for 1 hour. It was interesting to see how they turned out. They had so much fun making them and then showing them off.

Above is the only picture I managed to get. But you can see them ok.
