Presidents on the Internet
Do you
know why George Washington is never smiling in portraits? (Would you
smile if your false teeth were made out of cow's tooth, hippopotamus
ivory, metal, and springs?) Did you know that President Ulysses S. Grant
once received a speeding ticket while driving his team of horses in
Washington, D.C.? Kathryn Prellwitz's fifth-grade students at South
Beaver Dam Elementary School (Beaver Dam, Wisconsin) know those facts
and many more about the U.S. Presidents. In fact, those kids have used
their vast presidential knowledge to create a wonderful Internet
resource!
