Our first attempt at dioramas was a success! A few students made different things for the assignment besides a diorama. One kid made a pretty stellar Minecraft world of the lumber industry. He's been working on it since I first told them about the project (about 2-3 weeks ago). It turned out awesome. His lumber mill even burned down! (He was trying to build a fire inside to heat the workers). A few kids made brochures, one made a poster, but the rest made dioramas. Some should've started theirs a long time ago, but overall, they were really neat!
Here are a couple:
The gold stuff under the horse/wagon represents straw they'd put under to give the skis more traction in the winter time. The white thing is an egg and the circles are donuts, which the lumberjacks would eat for breakfast.
A kitchen of the lumber camp. There's a chicken under the table to show that the men ate a lot of eggs. The cat is there to eat the mice. And there's a pot of stew on the stove getting ready for the lumberjacks' next meal.
