Study Visit to the Museo de la Nación

During our visit to the Museo de la Nación we observed about tradition and diversity of the peruvian art, pre columbian pottery, gold and silver work, the art of weaving, and much more.

The cultural greatness of Peru is reflected in their varied artistic expressions, which century after century have left traces of their quality and beauty.
The pottery of old Peru dates back to more than three thousand years.
The artistic and cultural expressions comprise different cultures of our history before the Inca period. The various expressions shown by the ceramics transmit the rich and complex artistic and ideological motivations of the different Peruvian cultures.


The Moche and Lambayeque Cultures display the most advanced metallurgy of ancient Peru.
The Mochicas produced utilitarian items, jewerly and ornaments such as necklaces, breasplates, earmuffs and diadems. they achieved a great skill in the use of gold, silver, golden copper and silvered copper.
For the Mochicas, gold meant the masculine and silver symbolized the femenine.



The textiles played and important role in pre-hispanic cultures. At the funerals, for instance, it was customary to wrap the dead in funerary bundles.
The mantle of the Paracas Culture are highly admire for its designs representing mythological figures, profusely attired, express the high complexity of their conception of the world.

Recycling Project


Recycling involves processing used materials into new products to prevent waste of potentially useful materials, reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, reduce energy usage, reduce air and water pollution.
Recycable materials include many kinds of glass, paper, metal, plastic, textiles, and electronics.
For our project we used an egg box, a toothpick, paper, and 4 tops of bottles.
This was a very creative experience.

Rock Art

We started this term talking about rocks in our Science class and to find some fun with this topic we made rock art as people did long ago.
We used a cotton swab to paint a picture on the rock and we drew something that lives today as people did long ago.
Children enjoyed this creative moment.
