Fourth grade held their annual Wax Museum! Students partnered to learn about historical and notable figures, created props, gathered information and wrote skits to educate viewers on their individual of choice. One group member dressed as the “wax” figure and while their partner acted as the curators sharing information they had researched. What a fun way of learning! Thank you to everyone who joined the pop up museum! More photos will be added as they are received. #HESRedHawks
