Students will use the research (from home and school) to complete a presentation board and speech about their president or first lady. Students will print out pictures from home and school to use for their display board. Students may bring in patriotic items to decorate the presentation board. Display boards are provided for each student. We re-use these each year. Boards will be completed at school.
Students will "dress the part" of their president or first lady and present to the school and parents on our presentation day.
