This post made me remember last year with the third graders....I dressed up
like Emily Carr (complete with exotic pets, not live) and prepared
questions about Emilyıs life for the class. They were a group of reporters,
and we had a ³press conference.² Each student asked one question...it
turned out well; I tried my best to stay in character and we had a few
laughs in the process.
