Hello,
For those of you who could not make the Living History Museum yesterday, all the children did such a wonderful job!  It was so fun to see everyone dressed up and in character.

Living History Museum tomorrow

Tomorrow is our living history museum.  I am giving no other homework tonight except to prepare for their presentations.  Remember to send in any costumes or props.  Have your child recited his/her paragraph for you tonight.  The times for the "museum" are 9:30-10:30 and 11:45-12:30.  It will be in our classroom. You are all invited to come and learn about fascinating people from history. 

Thanks,
Mrs. Elliot
