Living Civil War Wax Museum
Fifth graders in Mrs. Weaklend's class held a living Civil War wax museum for other grade levels. This activity required students to identify significant contributions of a famous or not so famous person in our Core Knowledge Civil War Unit. The person they chose had to be featured somewhere in their reader. The “living wax museum” was a collection of visual displays where students, dressed as famous individuals, stood at attention, while visitors walk around and tour exhibits illustrating the life of the person represented. Students could press their "button" and the character would come to life and tell about the person they were portraying. They did an awesome job!!!! Good job 5th grade!!!!
