I don't know what age you are, but you can make it out of paper/glue (paper mache.)

Go onto the Internet and look up a picture of Mount Rushmore so you can get as much detail into your project as possible.

Mount Rushmore is named after a New York City Attorney. Charles E. Rushmore was sent out to this area in 1885 to check legal titles on properties. On his way back to Pine Camp he asked Bill Challis the name of this mountain. Bill replied, "Never had a name but from now on we'll call it Rushmore."

Thomas Jefferson, one of the most prominent of the founding fathers, is credited as the author of the Declaration of Independence. He became the third president of the United States.
