History was brought to life Nov. 4 as O’Hara Elementary School fourth graders presented their annual living wax museum.
The students selected a pop culture or historical figure to research and presented their findings to the school’s third graders.
Colorful poster boards detailed facts and information about their notable person. The best part was dressing up as their chosen character.
Among the depictions were tennis star Venus Williams, Yankees baseball legend Babe Ruth, nurse Clara Barton, explorer William Clark, inventor Samuel Morse, Indian-American astronaut Kalpana Chawla and former Presidents Andrew Jackson, Alexander Hamilton and Abraham Lincoln.
The event was presented as a project-based experience using MyWorld curriculum.
