RYNJ third graders have been learning about ancient Egyptian art and hieroglyphics. A hieroglyph is a stylized picture of an object representing a word, syllable or sound, as found in ancient Egyptian writing systems. As part of their studies RYNJ students learned about the Rosetta Stone and its importance to the Jewish people. For a hands on activity, students were given clay and tools and set out to make a replica of the Rosetta Stone using hieroglyphs. The results were amazing!
