My Project

In our social studies class, we love to make history come alive with 3D scenes. Students create historical scenes using a plethora of recyclable items and craft items. Each year, we are limited in regard to paint and paint brushes. These items are extremely important, because students use paint to set the backdrop and make their scenes look more realistic. We desperately need your help to ensure that we have enough paint!

For our "Middle Age Peeps" project, students create historical, medieval scenes and "peeps" are the main characters.

Students love this project, and the paint supplies really bring the scenes to life!
