This has been a fun project for the Indian Hills 5th Grade. Each student was to select an American Hero, do a report on said person, make a poster with information and pictures, and dress up as their hero of choice including props. Ben chose to be Patrick Tillman. He was a AZ Cardinals football player who succeeded in what he chose to do. He was deeply moved after the attacks on 9/11 that he quit football, even with a $3Million contract deal, and joined the US Army Rangers. He gave the ultimate sacrifice for our country.
They each had to speak to the crowd as you came along and pushed their buttons. Then they had to stand stoically as if we were not there. It was fun trying to make them smile or talk!! Most wouldn't give me the time of day! There were many representing those around the American Revolution. There were many soldiers and inventors. Many great and noble men and women who are American Heroes.
