The 3rd Grade Biography Study truly brings history to life! This book review project leads the children through many steps toward our final Wax Museum and integrated student portfolios. The following portfolios of student work represent a month of research on their part. Please scroll down the page to enjoy the information the children have assembled during the study. If you click on a student drawing, it will take you to the portfolio of their work.

For an in-depth look at the process and samples of the components that make-up this project, please click on the buttons in the toolbar to your right. --->

We also invite you to enjoy the photo-scrapbook of the wax museum where you can see photographs of the children resembling their biography persons. If you look behind the characters, you can glimpse their tri-folds that exhibit some of the projects.

Below you will find a portfolio of each child's biography research. If you click on a student drawing, it will take you to their projects.
