John Wayne aka Brett

The 2nd graders at Wheatland Elementary put on Wax Museum on Friday afternoon. There were 72 famous wax 'people'......all the way from George Washington to Miley Cyrus and everything in between, including John Wayne. They had to research their person finding out, where they were born, where and when they died (if applicable), find 3 important facts about them, and what their contribution to America was. They then had to memorize this information and come up with a costume/props that would help them portray their person.

Here's John Wayne aka Brett. Notice the red dot on his hand....that's the button you pushed to make him talk.

Here's Betsy Ross.

Christopher Columbus.

I would have liked to take more pictures of the kids however the hallways become quite congested and it was hard to get pictures. The kids did a great job....their costumes were great and they had to recite their information for about 50 minutes.

I'm still working on uploading the video of Brett aka John Wayne.....however I'm techno slow so it'll have to be in another post......providing I figure out how to get it loaded.
