Connor's class had a very interesting project this week. They have been studying different people in history and presented a living wax museum. Connor was Fredrick Douglas. He had to write a speech about him present it whenever someone pushed his "button" The speech was memorized in Spanish, but he could use notecards to recite it in English if someone requested English. I was worried he wouldn't be able to memorize it all and would freak out when he was supposed to recite his speech, but he did really well. Fini made him a beard from a black foam visor, cut up curly doll hair and pipe cleaners. The first thing out of everyone's mouth when I walked in the classroom, was how great the beard was.  Connor looked really good. I took a few pics.

I beleive that you cannot see it. There is someone's page where another person and I only see a black screen when we comment.

Other people see the post just fine.

I would love to know what it is exactly that causes some pople to be able to see it right and not others.

Like that one guy on my list where some of us cannot see the white background on the comments section.

You know what have really made that even better than it already was? If you could have found some sort of wig that would have captured the way Douglass' hair looked from some of the pics I've seen in history texts. He did look very handsome in that suit, and I am sure he kicked butt in his project!

Hmmm...I think once I finally get my teaching degree and first job, I'm gonna have to steal this idea for my class! lol

we were goin to get him an afro wig, cut it way down and dust it with some powder at the roots, but ran out of time because of having to help him with the studying for the speech.
We usuall go all out on costumes. My sister and I dig that stuff.

Isn't how that always goes? lol! I always wanted to go out for costumes back in school, but financial reasons kept me restrained! Darn mom not letting me blow the budget out on creative stuff! hee hee hee
