Battles with Integrity

Thanks for posting this. My first thought was that LC Petrov bears an uncanny resemblance to ... Martin Landau [cue Mission Impossible theme].

Your "Five Minutes of History" idea sounds good, but trying to shoehorn it into the end of a class might not give you enough time to give the kids time to discuss the event. Maybe you could offer it as a once-a-week or once-a-month lunch time session? Kids bring their lunchs, you make a short presentation, kids get to discuss and comment. Could be fun for everyone — and since participation is voluntary, you'll know soon enough whether the idea is successful or not.
