Our fourth-grade historians, from Levitt/Kochan/Wisniewski’s homerooms, stepped into the world of the Lenni Lenape through our Lenape Village Project! Students created detailed dioramas or village displays featuring wigwams, longhouses, and other elements of Lenape life. They explored how the Lenape used natural resources from their environment to build shelters and meet their everyday needs. Students also wrote an independent reflection explaining how their projects demonstrated the Lenape’s resourcefulness. To wrap up, students will participate in a team gallery walk to share their work, learn from their classmates, and celebrate their creativity and historical thinking!
Projects are currently displayed in the library for our school’s viewing pleasure!
