“New York Architecture”
In this activity, students will use toy bricks, blocks, or recyclable materials to create a model of a place Lolly visits in the novel, then include written labels and captions to relay important moments in the story.
Lolly and Rose spend time in New York exploring architecture and creating new designs for their constructed cities. Construct a location visited by Lolly and Rose using building bricks or other materials for your model. Add written labels and captions to show where and when the important moments surrounding this location occurred.
In your notes, in a reading journal, or through slides or visual aids, answer the questions below to draw connections between your construction and the novel.
Present your model to peers answering the questions and drawing connections to Lolly’s journey with architecture.
