Wax museum

All the 4th graders at Barranca Mesa Elementary work put on a wax muswum.  Kate chose to be Robert J. Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb.

The kids had to write a research paper,  make a poster, write a poem, make a ticket box, find a costume and write and memorize a 30 second speech.

Then on the day of the wax museum all the kids dressed up as their person and sat under their poster with their research paper and their ticket box at their feet.  All the classes in the school and the public got to see the wax museum for over four hours.  

Grandma and Grandpa Judi were visiting so they came with us to see the wax museum.   We put a ticket in the student's box and they came to life.  They stood up and gave their speech,  then sat back down and held their pose.
