I've seen and read the entire speech dozens of times: In school, I distinctly remember being given the entire speech transcription and talking about it as a class on more than one occasion. In elementary school, we would have an actor come on our "morning announcements" and re-enact the speech each year. One teacher showed it to us on YouTube in it's entirety.

Is my experience really that unusual?

Yes. This is unusual. I went to 4 elementary schools. My wife is a elementary school teacher and has taught at around 5 of them and none did this.

I am curious how old you are if you saw a Youtube video in your class in elementary school.

I was jumping around chronologically, the video was shown by a teacher I had in high school. That wasn't clear, sorry.

I don't think so. I distinctly remember discussing it multiple times throughout grade school and watching it at least once.
