Hi all,

Jamie Alonzo here from the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History.  We have an after school program serving inner city high school students and each year they build a museum exhibition which goes on the floor for several months.  This year I'd like to attempt having them work on a series of small dioramas. My question revolves around the fact that I would like this year's exhibition to highlight a variety of science careers/disciplines.
     o I'm seeking advice from anyone with ideas on how we might approach depicting something like a science career in a diorama
     o For anyone who has done a similar project with youth, I would also be interested in advice on how we should approach the process of designing and constructing dioramas

Thanks very much in advance for your help!

Everything best,

Jamie
