History comes alive for HANCsters at wax museum

Posted

Third Graders in Mrs. Lehmann’s class at HANC’s Samuel & Elizabeth Bass Golding Elementary School, in West Hempstead, completed their unit on Biographies with a fantastic Wax Museum.

The students each read a biography about a famous person they were interested in learning more about. The students chose from a wide range of inventors, explorers, world leaders, sport stars and scientists. After completing their books and research, the students compiled a video presentation about their person — who they then brought to life at the Wax Museum.

At the Wax Museum the students proudly dressed up as their characters and displayed creative poster boards which showcased everything they learned about their famous person. 

The students did a wonderful job on their projects and the family members and HANC students who came to visit the Wax Museum all agreed that it was a real treat to meet Jane Goodall, Ilan Ramon, Albert Einsetin, Elvis, JK Rowling, David Wright, Princess Kate, Milton Hershey and George Lucas.
