Ancient China -- Our "Mini-Museum"

As part of our social studies exploration of the culture and history of Ancient China, students worked with a website put together by the British Museum. After completing their "virtual tour" of the museum exhibit, they created their own pieces modeled on artifacts like oracle bones, and the jade bi. They made figurines of the goddess, Nu Gua, and diorammas of ancient burial tombs. Our mini-museum is on display in the hallway on the second floor. Parents and friends are invited to stop by and see what we've created.
