During the final weeks of the school year, the annual tradition of Jodie Day’s third-grade class holding a wax museum continued as the final part of a research project.
During the project, students work on an autobiography, and share important items with the class. Items can be anything, such as photos, jewelry, sports cards, or other things. The project is done at the end of the year, as it allows students to learn things about classmates.
After that project, students then research another person, write a biography, and create a fact poster to display information about that person. The final step is to dress the part, have props, and pretend to be wax forms of the person.
Family, friends, and other classes are invited to then walk through the museum as students do their best to stay still throughout.
