Expectations of the Revolutionary War Museum

1.       Student must research their chosen person and write down the following; interesting facts, their part in the war, and how they died or their role after the war if they survived.

2.       Students may choose a “talking wax figure” (standing), a cut out from a tri-fold, or actual picture frame…No matter what students choose they will be talking as if you were the person displayed.  Note to parents, we have talked about these choices in class.

3.       No matter the exhibit chosen, students must included the following in their ‘exhibit”

·         Title of your exhibit clearly visible  

·         The name of their person clearly visible with birth and death under the name

·         A “push here for audio button” that visitors will press, to hear students speak.

·         7-10 Interesting facts about their person. Student may speak some of these facts but they also need to be posted in the display.

·         An interactive activity related to their person that the visitors may do… (example decoding)

·         Pictures relating to the person chosen

·         You are not required to have dress up materials, but it is recommended especially if you are a standing “wax statue”. 

Here are some sites to get you started....
