Revolutionary War Wax Museum

Today Lilly's class had a "wax" museum. Each of the kids was a different character from that time period. I've done my best to document it with pictures. Lilly was Martha Washington.


Here's how it worked...each kid dressed for their part, had a script (most had them memorized), and when you stepped in front of them, they were "frozen" (as frozen as 3rd/4th graders get!). You would push their "on" or "start" buttons to make them talk. When they finished their script, they would freeze again. It was a very creative idea! Yeah, Mrs. Zurcher!






































This is what happened at the end of his "story". He died.












Lilly was Martha Washington.












Abigail Adams























The race track behind this guy has nothing to do with his actual performance. The racetrack is part of a behavioral modification tactic. It's another cool idea of Mrs. Zurcher's.
