[QUOTE="Tom Cashel, post: 1249561, member: 321"] Rap videos...pfui. 10th, 11th, 12th grade, we had to do history videos. 10th grade was a trial of Ivan the Terrible. We wrote the script, we put him on trial in the City Council chambers...we added as much comedy as we could get away with: "Doctor, give us your impression of Ivan the terrible." "My training is in the field of psychiatry...I don't do impressions." 11th grade: [I]Falling Staret[/I], the story of Rasputin. Great stuff, especially when they poison the wine with cyanide, and it has little if any effect on the Mad Monk: "There is enough there to kill an elephant." "And we will use it all!!" 12th grade: [I]Personal Altercations in United States History[/I]. We shifted our focus to the US and traced the conflict between Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr, culminating in their famous shoot-out at the Palisades in New Jersey. Highlight was the Narrator proclaiming: "History tells us that Thomas Jefferson was a man, and his wife slept around. Today we know the opposite to be true." Can't forget the blood squibs when Hamilton got shot down... Yeah, we got away with murder in high school...and got an A+ on all three videos. [/QUOTE]
