5th Graders are creating Marc Chagall Villages/Cities with paper

The last time I did this project, I worked with over 900 1st-6th graders creating an enormous city that wrapped around 2 hallways at Hibbard Elementary School. The project is based off of the artwork of Marc Chagall. In his artwork, many houses are upside down, and various people from his past are flying above the buildings, in a dream like world.
This year, I am changing it to where each 5th grader creates their own city, showcasing at least 3 buildings. They'll use scrap paper to make their buildings, and then glue them to a larger construction paper. Once finished, they will add a flying person or animal above the city. I'm really excited about the re-invention!
