Day 430

Something's Brewing Boys

Our fifth grade's Revolutionary Play was a success.  My class had three of the nine songs split between the three classes.  Our songs included a scene about:

King George called "It's Great to Be an Empire"

Colonists being fed up with taxes called "Taxation Without Representation"

The Boston Tea Party called "Down, Down, Down"

The picture is of the tea box I made and the caption is of a line from the song.  In this Boston Tea Party song the kids sang behind some cardboard boats and dumped the tea "overboard".  When we had our morning performance for the school, the kindergartners thought this was hilarious!
