A Word Workout Script NONFICTION LESSon 1 VISUAL A Word Workout Script My Country ‘Tis of Thee A famous song we now sing Was known first as “God Save the King.” Its words were changed when a new land fought For liberty, fairness, and freedom of thought. The Civil War was fought for four long years And a divided nation sang though its tears and fears. The war was finished; the time of healing was long. Fitting changes were made to the words of the song. Marching and signing protesters fought for a land Where all folks could vote, be equal, take a stand. From forest to field, our flag waves proud and free While its citizens fondly sing “My Country, ‘Tis of Thee.” Web Resource · Library Lessons · Oct 2015 • LibrarySparks NONFICTION LESSon 2 VISUAL Chain Link Timeline Strips Example: 1 “My Country ‘Tis of Thee” 2 1939 3 Sung by Marion Anderson at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC 1.

Art Bryan Collier, the illustrator of My Country, ‘Tis of Thee, is well known for his unique combinations of watercolor and collage. An excellent example of how his illustrations tell a story can be found on pages 24–25; within the unifying tent, ghost-like soldiers on both sides of the US Civil War are depicted as fighters, writers, and record keepers. Explain to the students that a collage is a piece of two-dimensional art assembled by repurposing other materials. Supply paper, glue, fabric scraps, and magazines. Challenge students to create a collage representing a patriotic song or symbol. Compare and Contrast The featured book’s dust jacket boasts a very different illustration than the one on the hardcover. Ask students to list five ways the illustrations are alike and five ways they are different. Discuss why they think the book publisher may have decided to display two different covers. Writing On the last page of the book, the author invites the reader to be creative by stating, “Now it’s your turn. Write a new verse for a cause you believe in. Help freedom ring.” The author’s website includes the “My Country ‘Tis of Thee Music Project,” where poets and musicians can submit their creative endeavors (www.clairerudolfmurphy.com/mctt-music-project). Encourage your students to write a new verse of the song for a cause they care about and submit their work to the author’s website. Web Resource · Library Lessons · Oct 2015 • LibrarySparks.

  • A Song for the President
    A Day for the Flag; a Song for the President June 14 th , Flag Day , is the day officially designated for celebrating the American Flag and all that this proud Emblem of the Nation symbolizes. By happy coincidence, or possibly Divine plan, June 14 th also happens to be President Donald Trump’s birthday. Although the tune that will likely greet the President that day will be Happy Birthday , the tune that since the 1800s has most often greeted U.S. Presidents is, of course, Hail to the Chief . The song Hail to the Chief was originally a show tune written by British theatrical composer and conductor James Sanderson for a London stage drama at the Surrey Theater. The production was based on Sir Walter Scott’s epic six-part poem published in 1810, “The Lady of the Lake”, the tragic hero of which was a Scottish clan chieftain, Roderick Dhu. For the song, Sanderson looked to one of the poem’s stanzas, which included the words, “Hail to the Chief who in triumph advances!” Sir Walter’s poem proved so popular that, in 1811, there were already two other London theaters, in addition to the Surrey, where stage versions were being presented, as well as one theater in Edinburgh. On January 1, 1812, a production which included Sanderson’s song opened in Philadelphia, and his composition became well known in this country too. Hail to the Chief was first associated with a U.S. President in 1815 – not with James Madison, who was Chief Executive at the time, but with George Washington.

Book-in-progress: The Racialization of Print. This book will tell a new story about the history of race and the history of print before the twentieth century. When, where, and how, did modern racism first change the meaning of print? How did shifting ideologies of racial hierarchy continue to shape the medium over time? I begin to answer these questions with a transatlantic account of protest and struggle over the technology of print in the Anglophone world, beginning in the sixteenth century, with the spread of printing in Europe and the emergence of modern racial categories, and ending in the nineteenth century, with the industrialization of print and the codification of scientific racism.

  • Fifth Grade Inauguration Workbook
    edHelper Name: edHelper Name: Name: edHelper What Happens on Inauguration Day? When a new president takes office, there is an inauguration. There is a formal ceremony. The new president and vice president take the oath of office. It takes place on the first day of the new president's term. That day is January 20. After the swearing-in, there is a parade. That night, there are balls for the new president to attend. If January 20 falls on a Sunday, the new president is sworn in on that day. The public celebrations will be the next day. The new president and vice president each take an oath. The swearing-in ceremony usually is held on the steps of the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. Each person's oath is special. The vice president goes first. He swears to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States" and to carry out the duties of the office. A band plays the song, "Hail, Columbia." This song was composed for the inauguration of George Washington in 1789. At noon, the new president takes his oath. He swears that he will "faithfully execute the office of president of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States." The band plays "Hail to the Chief." There is a 21-gun salute. Then the new president gives his inaugural address. This is a speech that sets the tone for the next four years. The former president and vice president and their wives leave the Capitol.

  • Semper Fidelis Free Encyclopedia
    FREE SEMPER FIDELIS PDF W. E. B. Griffin | 352 pages | 30 Oct 1997 | Penguin Putnam Inc | 9780515087499 | English | New York, NY, United States Semper fidelis — Википедия This piece was one of two composed in response to a request from United States President Chester Arthur for a new piece to be associated with the United States President. There is a very Semper Fidelis drum solo in the middle of the piece which includes a skillful dynamic change. Semper Fidelis features staccato notes and Semper Fidelis tonguing. There does not exist an original general order documenting the proclamation of Semper Fidelis as the official march of the Marines. According to accounts summarized in the CD liner notes[1] Sousa is regarded by historians as honest and on many occasions noted that the march was named the official march of the Marine Corps. However, a flood destroyed many Marine Corps records, even those documenting Sousa's rank as leader of the United States Marine Corps Semper Fidelis ; an order designating it as an Semper Fidelis march could have been lost. Sousa began as the musical conductor of the United States Marine Corps Band, known as "The President's Own", in and led the Band for five presidential administrations. Sousa began performing Presidential Polonaise and later Semper Fidelisalthough Arthur predeceased the latter. Neither displaced Hail to the Chief as Semper Fidelis song most closely associated with the United States President. This could be explained by a misquote or by Semper Fidelis maneuvers or exercises at Quantico. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Semper Fidelis March performance.
