Being Thomas Jefferson

Carter's 3rd grade class took a research project to a whole new level by demonstrating their knowledge in the form of a wax museum.  They had to choose a relatively famous person and research that person's life from birth to death/present.  At the very end of their project, they held a live wax museum in the library for their families to observe.  Not only were they dressed in character, but they did a fabulous job pretending to be wax figures - they didn't make eye contact with guests and they held completely still for what probably felt like eternity to them.  Very impressive performances by all!

Carter did a great job at being Thomas Jefferson!  I had to photograph him wearing a lacy ruffled shirt because I'll probably never see that on him again.  He was definitely the cutest Thomas Jefferson I've ever seen :)
