Military Diorama See your group Let´s create Military Technology Dioramas. Step 1: Decide the scale and the scene. Talk to your group about the topic you were assigned to decide the scale or size of your diorama and what situation you would like to present. For example: a military base or post, a military operation, the construction of a bailey bridge, air combat or frigates escorting a carrier, etc. Step 2: Start collecting the materials. Start collecting the human, vehicles, aircrafts or naval vessels figures in miniature for the interior of your project. Step 3: Decide on a background. You can paint or draw your own wallpaper or anything else you can find. Remember that the background has to be consistent with your figures and scale. Step 4: Choose a container. It can be a box, a board of wood, glass etc. Remember that your project has to be light but sturdy and moveable at the same time. OBJECTIVE To create a situation for speaking in English in order to practice technology vocabulary, categories and general knowledge of military topics based on learned grammar structures.

It displays multiple objects in miniature or life size with the purpose of interacting and presenting a situation. There are two main categories of dioramas: 1. Dioramas for fun or hobby. 2. Dioramas for teaching and instruction. Let´s take the second option focused to our military course. Dear Students: Remember to do your best effort when creating your dioramas, but the most important thing is to communicate your ideas in the best way as possible using military terminology and correct grammar structures.
