The Great Wall of China was built over 2,000 years ago, by Qin Shi Huangdi, the first emperor of China during the Qin (Ch’in) Dynasty (221 B.C – 206 B.C.). In Chinese the wall is called “Wan-Li Qang-Qeng” which means 10,000-Li Long Wall (10,000 Li = about 5,000 km).

great wall of china project for 2nd grader?
my 7 year old daughter has a united nations project that is due next month. her country is china.
we have decided to make the great wall of china out of sugar cubes, cardboard boxes,and paper mache
we’re going to make the wall out of the sugar cubes then paint them brown, the house parts of the wall out of cardboard boxes and paint them and then make the mountains out of chicken wire and paper mache.
what would be the best paint to use on the sugar cubes and what type of glue should be used to hold them in place? also, is chicken wire easy to use w/paper mache?
here is the picture we are going to use:

this will be a fun project for my daughter but I want to make sure it’s easy enough for her to complete mostly on her own..
lol-her school has a high standard curriculum as it’s a private school.
I wasn’t expecting her to do it all on her own-I’ll be there to help and it won’t be as eleborate as the picture.
she will help glue the cubes using craft glue then she can place the paper mache over the chicken wire. once it dries, I was planning on her spray painting it brown then using sponges to make the green spots of grass on them. we’ll also get some fake moss from the craft store for her to glue in some places.

For the mortar between your “bricks,” I would recommend white frosting. It should not melt or dissolve them. Any type of commercial glue might take too long to set up, might not adhere properly, or might cause your sugar cubes to do more than just wilt a little.
I would experiment with different paints. My first inclination would be to try tempera with a dry brush. You might also try spray paint, painting from a distance so that the paint goes on dry. If you did this, you could spread them out and paint them beforehand, using brown tinted frosting as your mortar.
I don’t know much about chicken wire. If you have a reliable hobby or train model store in your area, you might try asking them.

Great Wall of China? Essay help?
Great Wall of China? Essay help?
LOL so its not exactly an essay. But this is basically what I need your help with:
Imagine that you have been taken away from your family and forced to help build the Great Wall. Write an account of your daily life. Also, describe what you most wish for and what you most worry and wonder about.
Thanks to anyone who helped!

Well, many people died while working on the Great Wall. And they were buried under it. Several dynasties helped repair it, and during the Three Kingdoms Period, Cao Wei had to worry about Mongolians. But Idk if the Mongolians invaded China during the Three Kingdoms Period. I think the Jin dynasty had to worry about Mongolians.
