In the month of December, Writing and Public Speaking classes for 3rd - 5th grades will focus on preparing for the Wax Museum. Students need to come to class with their research materials, written story, and art supplies every day. They also need a sheet of poster board (any color they choose) and a printed picture of their person - preferably for Monday's class. (Once they bring their poster board to class once, I will be responsible for transporting it to and from school on subsequent days.)
Many of the students have shared their rough draft speeches with the class. They are so good! I am really excited and so very proud of them. As we continue to utilize class time to refine and memorize our stories, time spent working on this at home should be minimal.
Don't forget to help your student find a costume. I can hardly believe how quickly time is ticking away. Only fifteen days left before the program!
