•Included in this project, you will find the instructions for tracing the president. We felt it was best to provide our students with a 4 foot piece of butcher-block paper and allow them to trace (since tracing requires outlining the student’s body) and decorate at home. As seen on the examples, some students used actual suits that no longer fit them! That was so neat! The reading research and writing was done during class.
•If you want to hold an event for parents, you can have a wax museum format where students stand in front of their life sized projects and read their reports when someone presses a "button". This event is a lot of fun and a great way to promote parent involvement in your school.
•Use the flip book format or the multi- paragraph template with headings to share interesting facts on each president.
