Homework over the weekend

This weekend you will be working with the Gettysburg Address, which we talked about in class today.  Please choose one of the following three options:

1) Memorize the Address and recite it for the class on Monday;

2) Re-write the Gettysburg Address in your own words.  It may not be longer than 272 words, it may not repeat phrases Lincoln used.  It may be in text speak, or as a series of tweets if you like, or it may be a speech of your own that says the same things Lincoln said;

3) Translate the Gettysburg Address into a language you speak that is not English.  If you like, you may try your language at school to do this, or if you have a second language, you may do that.  You may not do a machine translation (i.e.: put it in Google Translate and click "Serbian."  It must be a language you speak.)  You need to provide a side-by-side translation, and we will ask you to read it aloud to the class on Monday;

A fresh copy of the address is linked up above!

Have a good weekend!
