I see nobody answered yet...
This is a tough one to think up quickly but maybe these ideas will help: Type "Parthenon" into your search bar and get a good photo reference. If you don't have craft supplies, a run through the dollar store will get you a glue gun & glue sticks, straws for columns, a can of white spray paint... I think Christmas stuff is out now, you can probably find a pack of those teeny tiny mini ornaments, maybe angels (remove halos and wings - Greeks didn't do "angels") Anyway just some teeny figures that could be glued to the "frieze" (flat triangle shaped front of the temple that has sculptures on it) Free cardboard from the grocery store for the base and roof... get extra in case it doesn't cut well the first time... easiest to work with corrugated, you can kind of "fold" a straight line into it before cutting. Glue straws to base first, let it set... bend a pc. of cardboard for the roof, you'll have to cut out triangles for the "frieze." You might need duct tape at some point in this... after it's constructed, spray with white spray paint... then look at your source picture again & use a black sharpie to add details as needed... to the frieze & columns, maybe some "stray" broken blocks made of sugar cubes or something might look cool.... If this doesn't work for you, try reposting this question in the arts and crafts section if they have one... Good Luck Kiddo!

Answer 2

There are 2 easy materials to use:

*Modelling clay
*Straws & cartboard.

-It depends on the scale you want to do it, measure the picture and put the same lenght & height of the building...you are using a letter size picture.
Roll the columns like a cilinder, the roof should be a triangle and some squares to cover up and down.
Buy a white enamel spray and paint it...

That's a suggestion

Answer 3

Advice on colouring the Greek temple: the greek temples were often (partly ) painted in bright colours. You can see this in reconstructions of the famous temple Partenon in Athens. You might want to add this detail...

Some Greek gods did have wings... Like Hermes (mediator between humans and gods) and Nike (goddess of victory).

good luck
