Crafting a diorama engages embodied cognition, where children physically manipulate materials to represent historical concepts. This hands-on approach helps them visualize and remember details about the heritage site, making learning more impactful.

Sketch a layout of your diorama on cardboard, including key features of the site. 4. Cut and assemble the cardboard to create the base and structures. 5. Decorate with colored paper and draw details to bring the site to life. 6. Share your diorama with family and explain its importance and features.
