Third grade students portrayed big names from the state's past, many of them even dressing for the part. This is an annual tradition at the school and has the students researching their character to help educate fellow classmates.
Parker Jones portrayed World War 2 General Omar Bradley, a native of Clark, Missouri.
'First we had to get all the facts about them, and then we had to write it on a piece of paper, and then we had to type it,' said Parker Jones, portraying Gen. Omar Bradley.
'It covers speaking and listening, it covers researching, it covers Missouri history, it covers the contributions of famous Missourians. That's an actual standard that we have to teach,' said Nicole Bayless, 3rd Grade Teacher.
These students were given a list of famous Missourians to choose from. After that, the work was all their own.
