Davy Crockett




Bodin had a school assignment to choose a historical figure and do an oral report in character. We will be going to San Antonio soon, so it seemed appropriate to choose Davy Crockett. He got his report all ready and learned some interesting facts, like he ran away from home as a child because he went to school and got picked on by a bully. He decided to skip school and not go back. When his dad found out he was mad, he had traded to be able to send him to school. To avoid the beating that Davy would get, he ran away from home. Of course, he is known as a frontiersman, but he is also know for the Battle of the Alamo.
