• HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE SIXTH GRADE
    ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS MUSEUM APRIL 15, 2011
     
    Projects about Ancient China, Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece, Ancient India, Ancient Mesopotamia (Fertile Crescent) and Ancient Rome are featured.
     
    Our sixth grade students put in a great amount of effort on their projects that is to be commended. They first researched their topics using online resources and books from the Middle School Library to become more knowledgeable about their topics before constructing their projects. Each student had to include written information about the importance of their chosen project. Fifth grade classes visited our Ancient Civilizations Museum from the Manor and Harbor Elementary Schools. Scroll down to see pictures from this wonderful event!
