Wax Museum

Submitted by susan.bird on

The fifth graders held their wax museum on Monday.  They were asked to choose a famous American that they wanted to learn about.  The students were required to read a biography about their person and take notes on them.  Then, they wrote a speech about them.  Finally, students dressed up as their person and became their wax statue.  The school and parents were invited to their wax museum to learn about these famous people.  These fifth graders worked so hard and did an amazing job.  We are so proud of them!
