Language Arts: Dreams, Past and Present, of a Better World

This morning  Elvis Presley, Amelia Earhart, Abigail Adams, Harriet Tubman, and Abraham Lincoln visited our classroom. This afternoon Helen Keller, King Tut, Cleopatra, Barak Obama, Bill Gates, Elizabeth Blackwell, and George Washington told us about their lives. As these famous visitors concluded their interviews, they spoke about the way in which they hoped to be remembered.

I hope your daughters will be inspired by their classmates' reports to read more biographies and to think about the work they might be interested in doing some day.
