My son has to do a presentation about someone in history who made the world a better place. It can be a musician,scientist, politician, artist, peace maker, entertainer, athlete, etc. The possibilities are endless, however we can't seem to find a person ds wants to research!
He also has to dress up like the character, so all females are out. He wanted to be J.K. Rowling until he found out he had to dress up (not exactly a historical figure, but that's the direction ds is leaning-and he definitely won't want to dress up like a woman).
I think he's turned off by the idea of researching someone he's never heard of, so we're trying to come up with someone fascinating, or at least someone fun to dress up as! I like the idea of Einstein, but ds refuses to do that b/c "people will think it's boring." These are the ones that are already taken: Edison, Michelangelo, Georgia O�Keefe, Neil Armstrong and Maria Montessori.
Any ideas? Thanks for helping us brainstorm!
