During MTSS (the enrichment part of our school day) several groups of students from Mrs. Nikki Smith’s GA History class worked together to build replicas of famous historical places. The replicas were build using micro mini blocks and took between 20 and 30 hours to complete. The students enjoyed this project so much that both groups have already started on another project, the completion of the Smolny Cathedral and Big Ben.
