Wax Museum

For the last few years, the third graders at our school have done a wax museum research project.  They didn't do it when Weston was in 3rd, but both Brian and Aaron have done it.  The kids research a famous person and then write a speech that they memorize and perform for the school and also for their parents on a special night.  Brian did George Washington Carver, and convinced Aaron to do the same person!  :)  The original parent night got snowed out, so it was rescheduled for this past Tuesday evening.  Aaron dressed up like his person, who was a scientist and most all pictures of him were in a suit.  I drew a mustache on him since that is what George Washington Carver always had, and then we headed out for the night.  The kids got set up while we had a PTA meeting.  Then we headed into the cafeteria where all the third graders were.  As you can see, Aaron's name of who he was is behind him as well as a red button that you had to push if you wanted to hear his speech.  The speeches were just a minute of two long, but so fun and cute!  Aaron did a great job and had lots of other parents come by and push his button!!  It was fun to go around and hear all about the people that the children researched!!  After it was done, we got to head over to Weston's band concert that night!!  It was a busy night and it has been a busy week!  I am glad to be done with school till January!!!!!  :)
