My seventh grade mathematicians will construct "to scale" pyramids for their study of Egyptian culture using their own architectural plans.

My 42 enthusiastic seventh grade Charter school students LOVE this hands-on project for their exciting study of Egyptian culture. They will use their ever-developing math and drawing skills to plan and construct architecturally sound "to scale" pyramids. They will also need a small amount of very necessary supplies to execute this exceptional project!

The kids will need white foam core boards for their groups as well as white poster boards. They are very proud of their hard work. The success of these projects depend upon decent supplies such as these. The students really want their pyramids to look as authentic as possible in order to best represent what they are capable of executing for the important exhibition of their work at the end of the trimester.

Donor support for this worthy math and humanities project will enable my seventh graders to reach their own high expectations. The necessary supplies would make all the difference to their success!
