Maiden Elementary
"Wax Museum"
 
On Wednesday, February 1, 2006, Pam Coulter's 5th grade reading class presented a wax museum.
The assignment given the students was to do a biography on a person from history.

Courtney Gilbert as Betsy Ross



Joey Santos as Orville Wright
Each student was given a button for visitors to press
for more information about their subject.
 
According to Mrs. Coulter, the students not only learn to research their subjects and write a biography,
but by taking on the identity of the person, they turn their report into an autobiography.
The students picked a variety of subjects,
from George Washington to Bethany Hamilton.

Susan B. Anthony
 

Austin Wright as Sitting Bull

Davy Crockett
I encourage everyone to attend these special events that the students present.
We can learn a lot from our children.

Nelson Mandela

Riley Poovey as George Lucas

Ronald Reagan
 

Nathaniel Drum as Desi Arnez

Arnold Schwarzenegger
