Miss Betty's Story of America


	America did not begin with the firing of a musket on the village green in Lexington. It began 210 years earlier with the Spanish settlement of St. Augustine. What happened during those two centuries? THE STORY OF AMERICA PROJECT provides the answers through infotaining videos, interactive classroom lessons, a touring museum exhibit and more!

			“The Story of America” is a big canvas filled with many colorful characters. To explore it properly Miss Betty introduces us to everyday people who step from the mists of time to provide a personal account of daily life, as well as the events that shaped it. Meet the butchers, bakers and candlestick makers, the teachers and farmers, and the women who so capably spun the social fabric of Colonial America.

	MISS BETTY EXPLAINS IT ALL: The foundings at St. Augustine, Jamestown, and Plymouth Rock. The passion for liberty that led to the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and ultimately the way of life we enjoy today. The grit and grace of colonial women with their wiley wits and backs of steel. African Americans who suffered cruel slavery but also became inventors, mathematicians, and business owners. The explorers, merchants, tobacco farmers and fiery-blooded patriots who turned an impossible dream into a great nation. Miss Betty looks beyond stuffy wigs and dour clothing to reveal the passion, spirit and humor of the men and women of our nation's early days; the famous, the infamous and the forgotten. Miss Betty brings them all vividly to life, from Pocahontas to Paul Revere, Benjamin Banneker to Benjamin Franklin -- The story of America.

			“This film is a winner - the best of its kind! This ‘laugh and learn’ history lesson with Miss Betty is a genius concept. The recent Alexandria International Film Festival participants voted Miss Betty a unanimous 100% score - Best Film. A lively, fact-finding quest into colonial history highlighted with spirited animation, live action, and the infectious charm of host, Miss Betty Ward.” - Sydney-Chanele Dawkins, Arts Commissioner for the City of Alexandria; Chair, Film Selection Committee - Alexandria Film Festival

	"Miss Betty . . . offers interesting, and often humorous, information through her storytelling, such as the fact that George Washington loved ice cream, and where the term “busy-body” came from. Tobacco farming, slavery, problems with the French, and even a ghost story add to the mix. Live-action video, historical pictures, and simple cartoonish animation all combine to educate and entertain. This is a fascinating visit to an interesting city, and the historical information will make this a useful program for American history units." – School Library Journal
