 LESSON
Draw a modern day picture in an 'Egyptian' style.
The Egyptians use HIEROGLYPHS
as a form of writing that used pictures for word.
Add symbols in columns,
as your own form of 'picture writing',
in the background.
Homework
The Egyptians used symbols 
to write out the names of their
royalty and gods,
enclosing the symbols in an oblong shape,
called a CARTOUCHE.
Design a cartouche
for your own name.
