Way to go!

You have done an excellent job researching, writing a biography, and creating a wax museum full of incredible Illinoisans! I hoped you had fun and learned a lot about the thirteen famous people we studied who have helped shape the history of Illinois.

I want you to reflect on your experiences creating the wax museum. Is there anything that you would do differently? Are you happy with the final presentation in the wax museum? Will you think differently about wax museums if you ever visit one now? Do you feel differently about Illinois history after learning about these famous people? Do you feel a new appreciation or understand about Illinois after studying these famous Illinoisans?

There are many more people who have made or are making amazing contributions to Illinois. If you would like to research some more famous Illinoisans, visit the website below!
