Very interesting Adam! Great job.
Great interview Adam! The whole class loved learning about Dr. Mitzmacher. The gross story part of the interview was a big hit with 3B. Do you think Dr. Mitzmacher ever goes near a corn ball nowadays? You are a very good interviewer Adam! Are there any other teachers, or a vice-principal you would want to interview next?
