     *End of Year Reports this year are to be of Historical Biographies of Famous People - All students study and then give report in character of their chosen Historical Figure. Recommend dressing as the person, being in character (or what you think that person would be like), bring visual aids, poster board presentation, or however you feel would best represent the historical figure.  Students will answer questions from the parents/students about their character, in character, as best they can-IMPROVISATION IS OK! 
     We will need the list of who they choose so we can all study what questions to ask each report presenter. Or better yet, as we get closer, email me the facts you are uncovering and I can forward them to all of us to prepare how to interview each famous person that will be depicted. Also, snacks brought for the party should be related to the character. Their favorite food or a food from their home country or state, etc. (i.e. I heard a famous hockey player ate steak and eggs before every game...not sure if that could be made into a snack, but I was shocked to know that info. was out there, Ewan)
