Diorama Project

Click on the links below to get ideas for your community diorama project.  Explore each cities webpage for pictures, activities, and landscapes. 

Your assignment is to create a diorama for one of these communities.

As you look at these sites, ask yourself:  

What do the people in this city do for fun? 
What do the landscapes look like? 
What kinds of jobs do people have? 
How many people live there? 
How close do the people live to each other? 


These questions will help you with gathering information for your diorama.
