 Replicas from Colonial Times
Dear Parents,
The fifth-graders have been learning about the early colonial period. Each class was divided into three groups: New England, Middle, and Southern Colonies. Each group is researching their designated area and compiling a colonial region book.
In addition to creating a non-fiction text, the students will be required to create a 3-dimensional replica from the colonial period, and then type a descriptive paragraph about it.
|
Students should choose one of the following replica options:
- a model of a colonial home, plantation, church, historical ship, or famous person
- a diorama depicting a scene from everyday life in a colonial home
- an artifact indigenous to the early colonial period
|
All projects will be displayed in our exhibit hall during our Colonial Winter Festival. The student’s replica, along with a typed description, will be due on Tuesday, December 1. If you have any questions, please email me.
Thank you for all your support,
Julie Tognoni
