Living Wax Museum Parent Letter
This living wax museum project is by far one of my favorite things about teaching 3rd grade. Truth be told this wax museum project can be used from 2nd grade all the way until 6th grade. Students take on the role of someone else, they dress up like an important historical figure and then they put on a show for their families and entire school It is a memory that is worth creating for your students! This is just one piece of the project (the letter to send to parents), but you can grab the bundle
