Maybe give some free advice about: School?
I have some favorite materials for making models, some of which you might have heard of, and some you might not have. All of these are avliable either at a good art supply store or a model supply store:
Foamcore (Thick and strong, but a bugger to cut and messure)
Posterboard (this is a much more rigid sort of bristol board and my favorite thing for making buildings with)
Vellum (a kind of semi-see through paper, great for windows and cheep)
Balsa Wood (It's a really light, sometimes thin wood. If it's thin you can cut it with a knife, but it takes stain like normal wood, very nice. Good for furnature too.)
Scuply! (Comes in great colours, can even look like grantite or marble, just look for tutorials online.)
Have fun babe! I sooo love model making.

Why not use shaped wood or Construction Paper that easily glues together or for the wood use nails or superglue this is a tough one why not ask your teacher or classmates about it.

Any materials? Wow, sounds like a fun project! I don't know the exact requirements of your project and what is and isn't allowed, but here's some ideas anyway:
-Cardboard
-Clay
-Paper
-Styrafoam
-Legos
-Sand
-Playing cards
-Wood
-Food (crackers, etc)
Be creative- as long as you're allowed to, maybe you could make an "interesting" building, like an igloo, a teepee, a castle, the White House.. I don't know! :P
Have fun with it, and hope you get a good grade!
