I would have been even more astounded if a fifth grader had written this speech on his own, but I probably should've mentioned that in my post. <br />Thanks again for the correction.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07595381224447369223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6113352590328207793.post-10443465422378069962010-02-26T13:46:41.117-08:002010-02-26T13:46:41.117-08:00I agree that this video and Dalton are amazing.

However, when I see someone post it and sing it's praises, I am compelled to comment.<br /><br />"School district officials contacted the family last May about giving the convocation speech for teachers. Dallas ISD officials wrote it."<br />-Dallas News, http://tinyurl.com/5c757a<br /><br />Dalton "performed" the speech very well. The speech is not his own and I don't want people to think it is. Please, don't think that I am trying to minimize the product. <br /><br />I'm just doing what I'd want my students to do: think critically about something and know all the facts.BKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12880121067443145641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6113352590328207793.post-32859099224899015792010-02-16T16:06:34.476-08:002010-02-16T16:06:34.476-08:00This speech is full of truth and this kid is just ...This speech is full of truth and this kid is just amazing.
