This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
My students will be using their engineering skills to bring architecture of the ancient world to life. Many of my students come from homes where purchasing school supplies is very difficult.
With these items, my kids will be able to create the most accurate, true to scale, replicas of different architectural achievements across the ancient world.
They will use the cardboard and clay to create the replicas and the paint and markers to showcase the accurate color of the infrastructure. The hot glue sticks and tape will be used as the mortar.
Please help my students participate in this engaging activity by donating.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
