History Project Diorama

Rubric

 Guidelines: You should research a time period in California History. Then, make a diorama showing a story of 3-5 characters during that time.

Your project must include written information to explain the date and specific area of California you are focusing on (Setting). You will also need to introduce your characters in writing (are they real or imagined, what are their names and ages, what are some of their interests and hobbies?)

You will need to show how water is included (used, moved, present, etc) in your setting.

You must also write and solve 4 word problems using measurement that reflect the problems people might have needed to figure out at this time.

You may make a recipe from this time period to accompany your diorama for extra credit.

The project is due Dec 11, 2015.
