Ancient Civilization Day - 10th May
What are you going to dress up as on the Ancient Civilizations day?
In most ancient civilizations, people’s roles and status in society were made evident through many avenues including the clothes and accessories they were permitted to wear. With this in mind, we highly encourage you to research and select a role to represent from an ancient civilization of your choice. This is a wonderful opportunity for everyone to be researchers and thinkers, finding crafty ways to create your own accessories whether it be jewelry, special headgear, artistic prints and designs on cloth, draping techniques, armor, etc.
We will be asking students to inform us of the civilization they intend to represent by April 30th which still leaves them with 10 days to finalize which role within their chosen civilization they intend to come as. Some suggestions of civilizations include but are not limited to: Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome, Ancient China, The Indus Civilization, Mayans and Aztecs, The Stone Age, Ancient Arabia, The Vikings, etc...
Here are some pictures from last year if you would like to get some ideas.
