Dear Michelle, You have the exact same avatar as I do, but I forgot the earrings dammit! I'll have to fix that. Great minds do think alike. I wonder how long it would take, or how much paper it would use to print out 6 million small stars of David, and hand that in as your project. Perhaps you could have some Friends help you out. I understand that your teacher wants you to realize the enormity of the number, but somehow I feel like this is kind of a ditsy project. I mean what if somebody came in with 6 million flies?

Two suggestions:
1) Sand. A bottle should hold many, many grains.
2) Create a few things (paper mache?) that have the words "Six Million" written on them (thus, SIX MILLION things)
I think the point is that people will not be able to bring in that many things, teaching you that the amount of people killed was THAT vast a number.

You could try 6 million pixels.
At 300 x 300 print on most printers, a square inch contains 90,000 pixels so you would need 666.6666 square inches of solid print to be 6 million pixels.
Printing at 7.5 x 10 inches on a page (1/2 inch margins all around) that would be almost nine pages of solid ink (8.8888 pages)

I don't think it's possible to bring 6 million of anything with you, except maybe air molecules.
Why don't you spare yourself the trouble and bring a copy of the movie "Paper Clips" instead?

You can create a college with poster board. Pasting pictures next to text (the text would explain the picture).
Or you can do...
paper mache
a scrap book
a mobile thing with hangers
