Mrs. Robin Cameron, fifth grade teacher at Nativity of Mary School in Clarence, challenged her students to select and portray a person in history. On May 14th, students appeared in costumes, created appropriate 'backdrops' and wrote a brief (1-2 minute) talk describing themselves as the person in history they were portraying. Parents and other students came to the "Living Museum" in the school gym and moved from one student to the next for live history lesson.
