Our fourth grader had a huge social studies project to complete this quarter. It is called the Arizona Wax Museum Project. It is a lot of work, memorization, research, prop preparation and learning, over the last quarter. (The OCD Mom in me tends to over-think some of these projects. I would have way-overdone it if Jax had let me help any more than I did. I have to remember this kid is 10 and not an adult.....) Speeches have to be memorized and work completed along a time line. Jax was so nervous practicing his speech with us, in the kitchen, but after practicing with his class buddy, Megan, giving the presentation to the kindergartener's and 3rd graders, he was so ready!
And we are pretty darn proud of this kid!!!!!
