Creating a Special Museum

Hey, is that President Obama?  No, wait...it's a wax figure!  Wow, it's hard to see a difference! 

Our class is nearing the end of From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler and have enjoyed the adventure of Claudia and Jamie as they lived in a museum, hiding from their parents.  We are in the process of planning a wax museum, with Ms. Rader's classes, to depict scenes from each chapter of the novel.  Who will serve as the wax figures?  The students!  It will be interesting to see if everyone can hold their poses without talking or moving in any way!  We think the project will be interesting and fun, and we're looking forward to inviting the school to our wax museum!
