ISD 4th Graders Create Risk Takers Living Museum

ISD 4th graders assume the personas of famous risk-takers for a Risk Taker Living Museum project.

International School at Dundee (ISD) fourth graders created a “Living Museum” showcasing risk-taking historical figures as part of ISD’s International Baccalaureate unit “Worth the Risk.” Costumed as the historical figures, students assumed the personas of their characters in a “Living Museum,” interacting with visitors to the exhibit by sharing information they had researched about the individual, the risks he/she took and the impact of these actions.
