MOULTRIE, Ga. — Classical Conversations, a Moultrie homeschool community, held its annual Faces of History event on April 17 as part of the community’s end-of-year festivities.
This is a highlight of the year for these students in fourth, fifth and sixth grade. They’ve been working hard all year learning to write well in their class on Essentials of the English Language. Their last big assignment was a research paper on the history character of their choice. This year’s history focus was US and modern history. They summarized their research into a 60- to 90-second speech and gave a dramatic performance to a crowd of family and friends without revealing the name of their character. The audience participated in a multiple choice quiz attempting to match the characters with the correct student.
