A Trip To The Wax Museum

Each year the Second Graders host a Wax Museum as a fundraiser. Each child chooses a famous American that they would like to portray. Then they need to come up with a costume, write and memorize a speech containing facts about their character and make a poster board with pictures and highlights of their life. Their desks are placed in a row around the edge of the classroom. Each child stands behind their desk and a cup is placed on the desk for donations that "activate" the character. Upon money being put in the cup the "famous person" stands up, recites their speech and then sits down and is silent until the next donation is dropped in the cup.
