Orville and Wilbur Wright



A couple of weeks ago, the twins gave an oral report on the Wright Brothers for their history coop class. They decided to dress up and pretend they were the Wright Brothers and tell their class about "themselves" (speaking in 1st person). They wrote their own reports based on the books we read. Their Daddy helped them build a glider out of toothpicks and styrofoam trays. It turned out great! They also copied pictures, cut them out and I helped them make a timeline of the Wright Brother's flying machines. Here are some pictures. Hannah is on the left as Orville and Kristen is on the right as Wilbur (because it had part of her friends name in Wilbur...Will.) They learned a lot and had fun preparing for the report.
