I have to do a 4-6 sentence presentation on Lizzie Borden tuesday... Any ideas for a quick costume or the presentation????
Thanks,
Cassidy
put on a long skirt, bonnet if you can find one, braid you hair if it is long, and carry an axe.<G>
Oh, I forgot to add, be sure to smear a little red paint ( lipstick) on your apron.
thanks... anything for the presentation???
Recite the poem. (It's ony four lines long, though)
Dig up some facts here:

and present them to the audience. Ask them to decide if she was guilty.
For your presentation on Lizzie Borden, here's a quick costume idea: wear a long skirt, and if you can find one, a bonnet. If you have long hair, braid it. To add a spooky touch, carry a fake axe. You can also smear a little red paint, like lipstick, on your apron to depict blood.
In terms of the presentation itself, recite the famous poem associated with the case. It's only four lines long, but it helps set the mood. Additionally, gather some facts about the case from reputable sources like the website http://www.lawbuzz.com/famous_trials/lizzie_borden/lizzie_borden.htm. During your presentation, present these facts to the audience and encourage them to form their own opinions on whether Lizzie Borden was guilty or not. This will engage the audience and make them a part of the discussion. Good luck with your presentation, Cassidy!
