I took a day off work for one of my favorite 5th grade activities.
They put on a mock trial and assume all positions required.
The classes use a historical event then assume the various roles and portray the historical event in the form of a judicial trail.
Joe was a part of the group that did the Boston Massacre.
He was the Lead Prosecutor.
He may have been born for this role.
(Although his aspirations also include preacher and engineer, hmmm)
Grandma and Grandpa and Dad (thanks to the rain, ugh) all got to watch this year
and we equally agree he did a very good job.
When asked about the trial, he told me he loved being the prosecutor because he got
to yell a lot to get his point across and he felt in charge. ha!
We did work on his part at home and while he did not have it fully memorized,
he was very convincing. His team of lawyers was successful.
Questioning the witness, ha.
And really getting into it.
His friends and classmates.
