We have been studying many famous Missourians during our social studies unit.  Each student chose one famous Missourian to research during library time and then wrote a speech in the perspective of that person.  The students had to find costumes and/or props to represent that famous Missourian and then performed the speech for different classrooms this week.  I took a short video to show a small snip-it of each speech the students performed.  It is a little difficult to hear the students due to the large number of students in our class reciting their speeches at the same time, but the video shows the hard work each student put into this project.  Room 19, your video will be up next week because of download limits on the website.
