The second-grade classes at Carlton's South Terrace Elementary hosted a "Wax Museum" on May 19. Students chose a famous person they wanted to research, learned how to take notes and then used research to answer five questions about their person. They used their notes to write a speech in the first person, memorized it, and worked on presentation skills. Pictured above are students in Wendy Greer's class. "Students and parents came up with awesome costumes and presented their speeches to our guests. We are so proud of all their hard work," reported teachers Wendy Greer and Kimberly McCuskey.
