Objective

You will research your famous Hoosier and create a pamphlet of information. You will dress like your Hoosier and give a short speech about his or her life. As the wax figure, you will tell about that person's life including birth, early childhood, major accomplishments, location in Indiana, interesting facts about their life, and death (if applicable).

Project Procedure

Choose the Research Links tab at the top of the page to research your Hoosier. Record information about your famous Hoosier onto your research paper. Turn your facts into a pamphlet (provided on Google Classroom). Come up with a speech and practice enough times to memorize the lines.
