This week during social studies we built a city.  Not just any city, a box city.  This activity was a lot of fun.  We started of by deciding what buildings were needed and what are city and roads would be named. Then we all chose a building and built them from random boxes.  This activity will work for any grade level.  You can add more detail for older grades and simplify it for younger grades. This lesson is perfect for geography but can easily be used in all other subject areas.  Definitly try it some time!
