I just need an idea for my research paper.

My topic is : Judge Crater
- He was a missing judge who one day, took papers and money and just left or something. He's one of the most famous missing persons.

And I have to explain why it Judge Crater should be a mandatory/central part of the school curriculum. And then I have to make two lessons that teachers can use, in two different grades and subjects.

I just need some ideas how I can implement Judge Crater into the school curriculum and then I'll just think of how to put it into a lesson....

By the way, it can be for any grade levels and any subject taught in school. Thank you SO much if you can just give me ideas.

maybe you can incorporate him into a lesson about integrity and honesty? like, how it's bad to take embezzle funds or something

IMO he sounds too insignificant to be incorporated into a whole history lesson- that's just ridiculous.

You should talk about the disadvantages that Native Americans encounter today as a result of past and present treatment of Whites and the Government.

is it feasible to even change the topic, or was it assigned?

Nope, nope, there was a list of topics and we had to choose one. She gave some of the weirdest topics like Basket Weaving, Flea Circuses, Radar..... etc......

It was first come first serve and I got stuck with Judge Crater.....

And to Crazydeb8ter, it's not really supposed to be taken seriously, have fun..... that's what she said.....

I'm starting to question the qualifications of my teachers -- when I was trying to find a synopsis for a movie to answer questions, I found the very question sheet online, and it belonged to the faculty at SSU
