It's That Time!! Florida Geography Projects are on the Horizon!!

Florida Map Projects on PhotoPeach


Florida Geography Projects have been officially introduced (as of August 30th) and they will be due BY Monday, September 17th. (Your child is more than welcome to turn in his/her project earlier than the due date.) The purpose of this "at-home" project is to have a fun and meaningul way to enrich and extend all that we are studying in our first unit of Social Studies (DOSS), Florida's Geography. Each student has received a guideline (blue handout) with all of the expectations for this project. The above slideshow highlights examples of projects that have been completed by Chets Creek 4th Graders in the past. They are provided simply to give you ideas on how you might proceed, however, we encourage creativity and artistic uniqueness on this assignment. Some students may choose the flour recipe that we have provided, and others may choose to use modeling clay or styrofoam. The sky is the limit! This project will count as a test grade in Social Studies for this first nine weeks. Have Fun! Happy Crafting! Mrs. Phillips and Mr. Pinchot

Students, leave a comment to share an interesting idea you gained from watching our featured slide show. What idea might YOU try for your at-home project?
