Description

This page Wax Museum Project will help your students create a biography research report on a famous person. The culminating part of the project is an amazing Wax Museum event, where students dress up as the person they have learned about and stand “still”, like a Wax Museum, until someone walks up to them and presses the “button” on their backdrops. Then students give a short 3 – 4 sentence speech about that person’s life. Everything you need is here, organized, and ready to create a very meaningful, fun, biography research project.
