Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
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
Please help bring learning about Ancient Civilizations to life for my 6th-grade students. Over the past couple of weeks, we have been researching and learning about how the ancient peoples developed the first civilizations.
Through your generous donations, my students will learn how to create early forms of writing written in clay along with creating Ziggurat structures similar to ancient times.
Students will use the clay to create their symbols for written language and then have students decode their messages. They will then create Ziggurat structures that will challenge them to build a functioning marble run from top to bottom.
Nearly all 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
