Kate and Max had wax museums in their classrooms this week. They each selected a significant African American individual, did research, wrote a speech, and PRACTICED a lot. Anna, Alex, and I walked around "pushing buttons" and listening to lots of speeches. It was very cute and all the kids were so proud of themselves.
Kate chose Ruby Bridges
*First African America child to attend a white school*
Max chose George Washington Carver
*Famous for teaching farmers how to make new things with their crops (specifically the peanut)*
That sounds like and looks like a great and fun project.
ReplyDeleteAwesome learning experience. Wish I could have been there.
Kate and Max, I know you did a great job!
Love and hugs YVBGA
