Can I make a Greek Temple out of Popsicle Sticks- By: Charlie St

10/18/2013

My Greek Temple Explanation

Picture

My K-W-H-L-A-Q Chart

K

I know that Greek Temples are churches were the people of Greek pray.

W

Why are there no walls or roofs on some Greek temples.

H

I will find out all I need to know on a website.

L

I learned that a Greek Temple is a place to pray and have ceremonies.

A

I will make a video and screen cast with my Greek temple 

Q

Why did The people Greece make     there temples with no walls

For me my favorite part and the easiest part was making and designing my Greek temple. Researching was hard for me because somethings didn't come up. I really like Greek mythology so it was a good project for me and the building part was fun because I like interacting with things in my projects. And at first I tried to make a new version but I messed up and had to turned it into a ruined tempel becuase of bugs.

I wish I understood why you are doing this. I read your reasoning on why you're doing this and I still don't understand why you're making this. Besides that, I really liked how you showed the 3D diagram of your project because that made me understand a little bit more of what you're doing.

What 3d program did you use in the video? It looked very interesting on how you used it.

yea I agree with creana I dont really understand why you chose that project. You need a little more detailing and explaining to get people to understand why you chose this project.

Interesting question. The Greek civilization really was quite fascinating. The concepts of religion in early history is an alluring topic. A question though, were all Greek temples constructed without a roof? What about the Pantheon?

I enjoyed your 3D presentation. It was well thought out and detailed. If you like to create 3D models like that you might be interested in installing a program called Blender, which allows you to create 3D models and animations.

This I thought was pretty cool. How you found that the one piece off to the side is something I probably would've thought was like a ramp of some sort. You changed the way on how I see these structures!

I think you should be more clear on what your project is, but if I am correct, your project is about why Greek temples had no walls, right?

This made me think about how the greeks built the temples in Greek. Your creation of the temple made out of popsicle sticks was very creative. The project proposed different ideas though. Maybe it would be a good idea to be more in depth with your main topic. Otherwise, you did good at convincing why the greek temples and structures were and are so important.

I found myself wondering why you used gum to hold the structure together instead of using glue, or rubber cement.
