Every year, our second and third graders participate in a project we call the Living Museum. Students learn about the lives of important people and share what they learn by writing a short report, creating a display, and dressing up as the person. We work on this project in the library, but much of the work needs to be completed at home with help from an adult. You can help your child by making sure they have time at home to work on the project. Ask questions, remind them of important steps, and provide explanation and advice when needed. It can be tricky, but do your best to let your child do the work.



You’ll find resources to help with this project here on our library website:http://library.crockerschool.org/pathfinders/biographies/
Just in case they don’t make it home, here is a copy of the assignment, a sheet to help with note taking, and a sample paper.
Important Living Museum deadlines:
Report Due: see individual teacher
Display Due: Wednesday, February 22
Dress Up Day: Friday, February 24
