Our Arizona Living History Museum! The kids were AMAZING!!!

At our Living History Museum, each student researched a famous Arizonan and created a characterization of this person! They wrote a report, made a poster, and were prepared to answer questions about their figure in Arizona's history!

I was so impressed with the way the students worked on this and answered questions the day of the "living museum"!

I really feel all of their Discovery Speech practice over the course of the year helped to make them more at ease in front of an "audience"!

GREAT JOB, GUYS!!!
