Today’s Lesson:
Now that you have finished your quiz, take a moment to read the speeches below. Thereafter you will create a 3-way Venn Diagram to compare three powerful speakers we discussed this week.
Step 1: Read this version of “The Gettysburg Address.”
- If you experience trouble with this link, try this one, OR Google “The Gettysburg Address.”
Step 2: Read the introduction to and the “squashed” version of Socrates’ “Apology.”
Step 3: Given all that you have learned about the words used by Dr. King, President Obama, President Reagan, President Lincoln, and Socrates, write a brief, 5-sentence paragraph comparing and contrasting three of these figures and post it with only your FIRST NAME and your LAST Initial on to this Padlet.
Step 4: Revise your “If I Were President” speech from yesterday.
Step 5: Use whatever time you have left in class to finish putting your “Dear Dr. King” letter into KidBlog.
Homework:
- Input your “Dear Dr. King” letter into KidBlog by 11:59 p.m. TONIGHT if you have not done so already.
