Molly Pitcher

For the past few weeks, Kylie has been reading her biography book on Molly Pitcher to get ready for her book report. This was a 2 part project. She had to write a summary and prepare a 3 minute oral report. She also had to dress up for the oral report. Here she is in the morning with her patriotic dress, bonnet, boots, and pitcher.

Just in case you don't know who Molly Pitcher was. . . Molly Pitcher was a Revolutionary War heroine that went on the battlefield and gave soldiers water from her pitcher. Her husband was on the same battlefield and when he suffered a fatal shot, Molly took over his cannon and helped her side defeat the British. (I had no idea who Molly Pitcher was before Kylie's report!) She was appointed a Sargent by General Washington because of her bravery on the battle field.
