Inauguration Day 2009

The students also had to do an at home assignment prior to us watching the inauguration.  The assignment came from Scholastic and had the students read and learn about the seven jobs of the president and address problems that they would speak about if they were the president.  They then had to share their papers with the rest of the class.  The main question was, “If you were the President, what problems would you want to fix?”  Here is an example of Austin’s speech (the bold words are the words given to the students):

“Fellow Americans, I am proud to be your new President.  Over the next four years I promise to keep the economy out of depression.  I also would try to create new jobs.  I think this issue is important because people are losing their jobs and having a hard time paying their bills.  Also because I don’t want people to lose their houses and live on the street.  I will accomplish this goal by giving people money to get the economy going again.  By creating more jobs, it will give people more money to pay their bills.  In conclusion, I would like to say the Americans will see an improvement in the next year.
