WOW, what a week it has been over here! We’ve
just finished up our final unit project on ancient civilizations with a way
too big museum exhibit for the entire school. It was a heck of a lot of
work, but we’ve received some great feedback from all of our visitors- we even made it onto the school website, so I
thought I’d share it in a post here.
For this unit, we’ve been focusing on the
ancient Egyptians and their daily lives in class. Additionally, the kiddos
chose their own ancient civilizations to research about to create a FULL-BLOWN
history museum exhibit. They had to find relevant details about the history and
culture of their chosen civilizations and display their findings in the form of
a museum exhibit, complete with ancient artifacts. Here are the guidelines that
I gave to them weeks ago. Last Wednesday, each class in the school was assigned
a time slot and given admission (raffle) tickets to visit our newly remodeled
classroom that was transformed into a museum!!!
Here are a few snapshots of our big day… If you
have any pointers or want to know more in detail what I did, feel free to leave
a comment.
Hope you are surviving what’s left of the school
year. 6 more weeks on this end, and the official countdown has begun. Cheers- Happy Friday!
