 click here for Hi Res image In this assignment the students create a village by splitting off into several small groups and modeling a homestead into their section of a mound of dirt. Above students are seen doing initial earthworks on their groups' section. |
 click here for Hi Res image Students use their hands and hand-tools, instead of bulldozers and months of work to quickly model roads, swails, ponds, etc. They then use ferns, other small vegetation and found objects to model trees, gardens, structures etc. |
