This will be the person you will dress up as and present at the wax museum in December. If The sketch is not done the student will not be able to participate in the wax museum.

The book needs to read at home and the Biography sketch will be done at school and home. I have set aside some days to teach gathering information from multiple sources and conducting research projects. If your child can gather some information at home, we will get more information to complete the project at school.
