Description
Class Experience
This class is part of a series of patriotic classes exploring American Symbols. The class will begin with the song "This Land is Your Land". Students will discover the history of the Lincoln Memorial including the design, the statue of Abraham Lincoln, the Gettysburg Address, events that occurred at the Memorial, and facts about Abraham Lincoln through a PowerPoint slide presentation. I will use questioning techniques and discussion as students interact with each other and with me. Following...
Students will learn: * The history of the Lincoln Memorial * The history of Abraham Lincoln * Lesson vocabulary and a song in American Sign Language * Creation of a Martin Luther King Jr. collage
My excitement about American symbols began with travels to Washington, DC. I loved stepping onto the exact spot Martin Luther King Jr. stood for his iconic I Have a Dream speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. Walking through the White House thrilled me as I imagined the historic individuals who had walked its halls. I have enthusiastically taught many students about Washington, DC through books, music, and plays. I'm so excited to share American symbols with Outschool students!
There will be no homework for this class.
