2001 Nature's Fury Wax Museum Gallery
The culmination of the Nature's Fury unit is a wax museum in which students dress in period costumes and present accounts of a famous natural disaster as if they were witnesses to the event.  Students explain their versions of the catastrophe to visitors of the wax museum, including parents,  community members, and elementary students.
