Mrs. Chaney and Mrs. Andrew's 6th grade class had a project called Cave Painting which led them to an understanding of what the world was like before written records. They sponge painted on their cardboard "caves!" The students were instructed to tell a story about their people using symbols and pictographs which was harder for them than they thought. One student told a story about a hunt when the animals were plenty and people ate well that season. Another student told of animals and plants that were plentiful in the area during the season of full sun. It was a fun, messy, truly creative project that the students really enjoyed!
