Audrey's Social Studies Science Fair

The culmination of the quarter long study on Roman and Greek mythology and history was on Audrey's birthday with their "Sixth Grade Excellent Adventure."  They kids studied a God/dess and made a board on him/her and acted out as the God/dess when someone would come up to them.  It was really fun and even more fun now that it's over! :)

Audrey was Vesta, the Roman Goddess of the Hearth and Home. I think she had a pet donkey (thus Eeyore).
Shaina was Diana, the Roman Goddess of the Moon. (Fantastic bow!)
Lebet was Confucius, God of the Fortune Cookies. (Need to point out that Lebet is a girl, short for Elizabeth. So proud of you for absolutely rocking the facial hair!) :)
Macy was Maia, Goddess of the Spring and Fresh Beginnings. (Her poster was my favorite!)
Zach was Pan, Greek God of the Shepherds, the one with goat feet. (And a great hat and pants!)
Matt was Seth, Greek God of Chaos and Confusion (and a great mask!)
Haille was the Egyptian Cat Goddess Bastet (MEOW!)
Colby was Alexander the Great the King of Macedonia, a pupil of Aristotle
Mason (left) was Pericles the Greek God of Peace (so why the stabbing?) and Shane was Plato, Socrates' pupil, the Greek Philosopher
Thank you to all of the 6th grade teachers for all the hard work and help, but especially Mrs. Silvas for helping the kids learn to tackle a large project and break it down into parts. I think they will definitely be ready for 7th grade in the high school building next year!
