Grade 6 students learned about ancient civilizations and then presented artifacts they made that showcase life in ancient Egypt and Hellenistic Judea.
On display on the Middle School floor is a collection of masterfully assembled pieces making up a Grade 6 "Museum of Ancient Civilization."
Students spent a great deal of time curating two companion museum exhibits in Humanities and Judaic Studies. In both classes, they learned about ancient civilizations and how the the tools they created, that are still used today, can help us to understand those cultures. A field visit to the Oriental Institute and speaking with a museum design expert inspired students' creativity for making and presenting artifacts to showcase some aspect of life in ancient Egypt and Hellenistic Judea.
