Black History Wax Museum at Gotham Avenue

Gotham Avenue School’s second grade hallway recently transformed into a living “wax museum,” as the students dressed to represent a famous Black figure for the first annual Black History Wax Museum.

The second graders picked a person that interested them to research. They went through the writing process, starting with a rough draft and finishing with completed written reports. They also created poster boards with facts and images. The students worked on the projects for over a month.

Gotham Avenue invited parents and family members to attend the wax museum. The students spoke from their chosen person’s point-of-view, sharing facts and important points in their life.
