On Friday, NorthStar presented their Ancient Civilization projects at Coffee Connections! Students researched the big concepts that make up a civilization: Time Period, Government, Culture, Religion, and Technology. After researching, students completed a writing component that ranged from mini-books, brochures, newspapers, or informational papers. They also created hands-on projects that ranged from detailed drawings, artifacts from the civilization, or 3D models. Thanks to all who attended!
