Wax MuseumInformation about purpose: Welcome! Today you are starting a fantastic adventure! We are going to be transforming you into your favorite inventor. We are having our annual “Third Grade Wax Museum” in just a few short weeks. This museum is going to be set up within our school. What will be in the museum? You! You are going to be pretending to be an inventor. You will even dress up like the individual you choose! When a visitor comes to visit your exhibit, you will need to read them a short summary about your inventor. There will be over 130 exhibits. This means your summary needs to be informative, but short. It will only be the major events of your inventor’s life. This module that you are about to start will help you create that piece of writing.
