During the unit Where We Are in Place and Time, grade 3 students were investigating ancient civilizations. They learned about ancient China, Rome, and Egypt and how their inventions and discoveries have shaped our present.

The students then turned the legend into a script, distributed roles, and prepared to stage the play. The music teacher Ms. Nino helped them to learn a traditional dance. As for the art teacher, Ms. Lana, she supported students and helped them to create prompts for the play including amazing masks for the monster Nian and fans for the dance.
