Obama voters - This is 7 days away. Why do the teachers already have the curriculum for that day, but there is no text of the speech available for prep?

Obama voters - If Bush had announced that he was lowering himself to speak to the nation's children in 7 short days on "issues" how many "Datelines" and other tv shows would be dedicated to making sure you keep your kids out of school on that day? How many minutes of TV time would be used to denounce it? Why isn't this all over the news?

Obama voters - do you feel like you have "won" something or or "winning" something? What have you won? What have you accomplished? Where are the fruits of victory? Almost a year after the election where are our soldiers? Where is our banking system? Where is our unemployment? Where are the cash for clunkers checks? :shrug: Why hasn't Obama paid for your mortgage and your SUV payment?

This is absolutely nuts.

Why do you think he wants to speak to you?
What do you think he will say to you?
• Teachers can ask students to imagine being the President delivering a speech to all of the students in the United States. What would you tell students? What can students do to help in our schools? Teachers can chart ideas about what they would say.
• Why is it important that we listen to the President and other elected officials, like the mayor, senators, members of congress, or the governor? Why is what they say important?
During the Speech:
• As the President speaks, teachers can ask students to write down key ideas or phrases that are important or personally meaningful. Students could use a note-taking graphic organizer such as a Cluster Web, or students could record their thoughts on sticky notes. Younger children can draw pictures and write as appropriate. As students listen to the speech, they could think about the following:
What is the President trying to tell me?
What is the President asking me to do?
What new ideas and actions is the President challenging me to think about?
• Students can record important parts of the speech where the President is asking them to do something. Students might think about: What specific job is he asking me to do? Is he asking anything of anyone else? Teachers? Principals? Parents? The American people?
