Kelsey gets to participate in the 5th grade wax museum tomorrow. She had to write a report on a hero and she was assigned Eleanor Roosevelt.
She gets to sit completely still for 2 hours
while the rest of the school "tours" the museum.
while the rest of the school "tours" the museum.
another student pushes the button, she gets to recite her poem.
The poem was a painful project that the entire family helped with.
Who knew it was so hard to rhyme about the First Lady?
But that's not my real first name.
My parents named me Anna,
And my childhood was lame.
My father drank a lot of alcohol,
My mother was demanding.
They both died before I was ten,
I had a hard time understanding.
At 20, I married Franklin,
Who became a U.S. President.
That made me the First Lady,
And an official White House resident.
After Franklin died,
I had opportunities to serve.
Advocating Human Rights,
Ensuring freedom we deserve.

Too cute!! When I was a teacher (way back in the day), my students LOVED the wax museum!! I always thought it was such a creative way to really solidify the knowledge. I didn't know they did it down here!
LOVE the poem!! You guys did a great job!
Wow I'm a bad mom! I had no idea that is what was going on today. I thought Nate was in a play or something, so I sent him with a top hat for Abe Lincoln.... and that is all! I really need to ask more questions, and read the take home notes.
our school did a wax museum as well. It was really neat. She will do a great job!
Cute poem and adorable little wax girl! What cute, smart, talented kiddies you have!
