4th Grade: "It's A Small World After All" Group Project

You may be familiar with the Disney World ride, "It's a Small World", but did you know that some of the concept ideas for this ride were made by the artist Mary Blair. Here is one of her paintings that helped to inspire designs for this ride.

The fourth grade students used this as inspiration for our own lesson. Each student chose a monument from around the world. The students researched their monument and created a simple drawing of it. As a group, the students of each class created a large drawing of all our monuments from around the world and combined them to create our "small world" design. The students used their research to type up a paragraph with facts about their monuments.
