Have you ever done frog mummification? Well I doubt it but ill explain it to you. The steps we did where like this, first we got the frogs and killed them and froze them, second we cut through the middle of their bellies, then we took every thing inside them, when that was done we got his black heart and put it in his jaws, then we made up a name and put the frog in salt for him to dry. While that was happening we where making a sarcophagus for him. When he was dried up, we filled up his belie with all this good smelling spices and then rapped him in gauze. During that week we buried him in a secret place where no ones can unbury them.

In the burial we had to dig a hole approximately two feet deep and put the frog in. when we started we said we were never going to finish. Then when we were about one foot and some more inches my teacher told us that we had to put in the frog in and just leave it there for the next two years. The people that helped us where Mr. Trefts, Mrs. Trefts and Mrs. Chichi, Mr. Trefts helped us because he knew all the steps, Mrs. Trefts helped us by making sure everybody was doing the right thing and helping if we needed help, Mrs. Chichi helped by talking care of us and looking over us and talking pictures of us for the web.
