David Livingstone, I Presume?

Cody's class did a unit on explorers. Each student picked an explorer to research. They drew a map of their explorations and gathered facts on that person. On Explorers' Day, they each dressed as their explorer and did a presentation. They also did an exploration as a class, and the teachers were pirates trying to sabotage the exploration. I thought that was pretty creative of his school to come up with.

Cody did David Livingstone. He put together his own costume. Once again, I was really thankful for that. The cool thing about David Livingstone is that he was also a missionary(little piece of trivia for those of you who did not know). This summer Discovery Channel did a reality show called Expedition Africa where a group of people retraced Livingstone's route. It was cool after having watched that show for him to do more research on this particular explorer.

P.S. He did wear shoes to school.
