Today we learned about our new assignment, to memorize and recite the Gettysburg Address on May 27th and 28th. We went over the rubric and began memorizing it together. I showed students an effective method for memorization. Attached is a copy of the address and the rubric.
We also read from “Shipwreck. . .” and in most cases finished the book. The homework is to read for 20 minutes.
