3D Landmark Projects

Students have already received the information below last Friday, March 9.

Third grade has been learning about the USA government in social studies class. As a final project for our government chapter, students will be required to create a 3D project on a famous landmark found in the USA. A landmark is a well- known natural or manmade structure, like the Grand Canyon and Lincoln Memorial. These are visited by thousands of people every year and are important to a country.

Students are encouraged to get creative and use any (non-edible) materials to design their project. For example, they can use popsicle sticks, paint, clay, colored paper, etc. Projects are worth 100 points and will be counted as 1 test grade. Students will complete a report in class about their landmark after reading their information book that was provided to them. Projects are due Monday, April 9th. Students may bring their projects earlier if they are completely done :)
