Your Mission...

**__BUILD A GREEK TEMPLE - (Groups of two or one)__**

1. Research a God for whom you will build a temple, using this link: // [] //

2. Using the pictures above as a guide, build a Greek temple from paper and card. Today's math lesson on NETS should help you. See me for some starter templates. ( //You will need to decide whether you are going to build in the Ionic or Doric style.) //

3. When you have completed your temple use your research to create designs to stick on to your:

** METOPES: ** These are the square blocks sitting on top of the pillars carved with mythological scenes related to your God.

**// PEDIMENTS //** : These are the triangular spaces on each end of a temple roof. Pediments on the Parthenon show single scenes from mythology.

4. Have a classmate take a photo of you, your partner and your temple and post it on this page.
