Wax Museum

I wish I could crop a picture on my phone, if I can, I don't know how.  This will give you the idea.  The 4th grade had an activity called wax museum connected with their Utah History studies.  Alyssa played the part of Alice Merrill Horne who played an integral part in establishing the first art institute in the United States.  Each of the students dressed as their chosen person from history.  They had memorized a paragraph describing who they were.  They lined the walls of the gym and families, and students from other grades were invited to come.  They each had a dot drawn on paper in front of them.  As parents and students walked by they would press the paper dot and that would wake up the wax figure and they would recite their paragraph and freeze again.  Pretty fun!  Alyssa loved it!!
