The Tomb's Seal 4JP

Today we discovered this seal on a tomb in the Valley of the Kings.


We came up with words to describe how it looks and how we feel having found it.

  • broken, 
  • dusty, 
  • excited,
  • speechless,
  • astonished, 
  • amazed, 
  • tense,
  • ancient, 
  • crazy, 
  • petrified,
  • cold, 
  • mysterious, 
  • dull, 
  • tight, 
  • wooden, 
  • bland, 
  • strong, 
  • rickety,
  • clinging, 
  • rusty, 
  • old.

Then we wrote some Super Sentences using these words and others to describe the tomb seal and our feelings about it.
