Culture-in-a-Box ProjectHonors World History

Take a look at the schedule…

What you will have to do for this project…• With your assigned group, you will be creating

a culture that existed somewhere in the past in the world.

• You will split up the culture aspects between the different members of your group.

• Each student will be responsible for 2 artifacts, one written and one 3-D that explains their assigned aspect of the culture.

• We will follow the DIG Schedule exactly in order to make sure that we are able to complete everything in an orderly matter of time.

A couple of ground rules…

• You need to create an alphabet for your culture. • Your culture has to be set in the past. • No cannibals! (It has been done to death! Get

it…)• This culture should be totally original.• The artifacts will give clues without giving out

obviously answers. • They need to be human, they can’t be alien or an

animal race. (Needs to be believable)• They need to have actually have been able to

exist. (Examples: They can’t be fairies.)

Examples:•We represent the people of the “Land

Down Under.” This is a nickname for Australia.

•Geography- Last year a group had their culture located in the Amazon Rainforest and they worshipped a “Black Caiman.” They are only located in South America in the Amazon Rainforest.
