Saint Wax Museum Research Project
Each sixth grade student will have a saint to learn about and present to students, staff, and visitors as part of a "Living Wax Museum".
There are three parts to this project. You will research your saint to find a specific set of information. You will create a poster to present the information you have found. You will also write a 2-minute speech from first person point-of-view describing the life of your saint.
First, research your saint using print materials (books, encyclopedias, etc.) or credible online sites. Record what you learn onto the Saint Research Sheet.
Create a poster following the guidelines provided by your teacher.
Write and memorize your 2-minute speech.
From items around your home, create a costume that is school-appropriate and makes you look like your saint.
Use the links below for directions and resources to complete each of the three parts.
