History of the Olmecs by Lucas and Bay

Over the last few weeks the third and fourth graders have been working on a group research project in Native Peoples.

Each group had to research various facts about the assigned civilizations by using resources such as the internet and books found at the Sunnyside Public Library. Together they worked on a poster where all the information was put into detailed paragraphs describing the various elements of the civilization like agriculture, homes, beliefs, art, clothing and games. They were tasked with finding information about the Olmec arts/crafts, homes/tribes, and sports.
