Wax Museum Project at school

Kyle and his class have been hard at work on their Wax Museum Projects. They each chose a famous person and researched their life. They created a presentation board and wrote a speech about their person. They dressed up as their character and they were wax museum statues of their people. When you went to their station and put money in their cup OR shook their cup, they would come to life and tell you all about their life.
It was really cute and Kyle did a great job (as did a lot of the kids). Kyle chose George Washington Carver. Here he is in his statue position.
Below is a recording of him doing his speech. Unfortunately, it was really loud in the classroom so it is very hard to hear the specific details of his speech. He tells about his childhood, his education, his work and peanut products, and his character if that helps at all.
Correction: I have tried and tried to get this video to post and I can't. At first it was too large (I didn't realize) and so I edited it smaller. However, it still won't load. Darn. It was cute. Oh well...
