There is no school on Friday in honor of Good Friday.
The American Revolution speeches are next week. I e-mailed parents and students a list of all the speech days/times. Students were introduced to the American Revolution Famous Person Speech about a month ago. After a lot of research and learning how to write a speech, last week they started writing the actual speech. Mr. Spencer came in last week to talk to the class about public speaking, and this week I have two more adult guest speakers coming in to talk to students about public speaking.
Each student was assigned a famous person from the American Revolution time period. If they didn’t like the person they were assigned they were able to change him/her, but it is now too late to make any changes. Each student will dress up as, and give a 3-5 minute speech as the historical figure. Speeches are on Wednesday, April 4 and Thursday, April 5. Parent/Guardians will be invited to come watch their child’s speech.
