While I am not clear on what the ultimate project will be, I do know that I want my students to research their own history regarding rituals and traditions. Once their research is done, students will compare their findings to ancient civilizations. This is a great opportunity to interview parents, grandparents, and/or family members. As we get closer to the beginning of the school year, I will create focus questions. Topics of great interest (of my previous class) were burial rituals/ceremonies, holidays/celebrations, statues/temples/churches, food/food presentation. Due to time restrictions that always arise, students might have to choose one of the topic.

Our assignment will be covered within the following standard:
6.6 Students analyze the geographic, political, economic, religious, and social structures of the early civilizations of China.
