American Heritage Day
American Heritage Day DEAR PARENTS, Each year the elementary school students at Valley Christian Academy prepare a speech depicting the life of a great American man or woman. The speech is written in the first person and should include the character’s birth, death, and major accomplishments. Parents should feel free to help their children write these speeches. A good way to write the speech is to find a child’s biography and follow the story line as you construct the speech. This will make for a more interesting speech rather than a mere recitation of facts from the encyclopedia. Students will be awarded extra points for including spiritual application in their speeches. Please adhere to the following time limits. K-1 Speeches must be 1-3 minutes in length with a minimum of 175 words. 2-3 Speeches must be 2-5 minutes in length with a minimum of 350 words. 4-6 Speeches must be 3-10 minutes in length with a minimum of 525 words. Students will give their speeches in class. They should be sure to have their speeches memorized well enough so they do not need any prompts. Please be aware that students who need frequent prompting will receive a low grade. Also, any student with a speech that doesn’t meet the minimum requirement will receive a “D” or “F.” Students must portray a different character each year. One of the goals of this assignment is to help our children learn about different men and women who have made America great. Help your child choose characters from whom they can learn much. -

Laura Bridgman Laura Bridgman
LAURA DEWEY BRIDGMAN 1829 December 21, Monday: Laura Dewey Bridgman was born physically normal, in Hanover, New Hampshire. 1832 January: Little Laura Dewey Bridgman and her two sisters came down with the scarlet fever. Her sisters died. Laura’s ears and eyes suppurated and her senses of hearing and of sight were eliminated. Her sense of smell, also, was almost entirely removed. The microorganisms in question had themselves a good meal and were ready to move on, leaving behind a little girl who would always need to wear a ribbon across what was left of her eyes, to protect the sensitivities of others: Attending the 12th Church on Chambers Street in Boston with friends, Lydia Jackson of Plymouth, who had herself in 1821 or early 1822 been a victim of the scarlet fever, heard Waldo Emerson preach. HDT WHAT? INDEX LAURA BRIDGMAN LAURA BRIDGMAN 1837 October 12: Dr. Samuel Gridley Howe of the Perkins Institute for the Blind began to teach the alphabet to still-cute little blind, deaf, and mute Laura Bridgman:1 Helen Keller is now Perkins’ best-known deaf-and-blind graduate, but just as famous in her day was Laura Bridgman, who went to the school only five years after it opened. When Dr Howe taught her the use of language it was the first case of its kind recorded. We should think of things of this kind when we read of the atmosphere of hope and excitement then; and when we read Emerson and Thoreau urging their readers to cultivate the self and not to trust to institutions and philanthropies. -

Executive Order 13978 of January 18, 2021
6809 Federal Register Presidential Documents Vol. 86, No. 13 Friday, January 22, 2021 Title 3— Executive Order 13978 of January 18, 2021 The President Building the National Garden of American Heroes By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered as follows: Section 1. Background. In Executive Order 13934 of July 3, 2020 (Building and Rebuilding Monuments to American Heroes), I made it the policy of the United States to establish a statuary park named the National Garden of American Heroes (National Garden). To begin the process of building this new monument to our country’s greatness, I established the Interagency Task Force for Building and Rebuilding Monuments to American Heroes (Task Force) and directed its members to plan for construction of the National Garden. The Task Force has advised me it has completed the first phase of its work and is prepared to move forward. This order revises Executive Order 13934 and provides additional direction for the Task Force. Sec. 2. Purpose. The chronicles of our history show that America is a land of heroes. As I announced during my address at Mount Rushmore, the gates of a beautiful new garden will soon open to the public where the legends of America’s past will be remembered. The National Garden will be built to reflect the awesome splendor of our country’s timeless exceptionalism. It will be a place where citizens, young and old, can renew their vision of greatness and take up the challenge that I gave every American in my first address to Congress, to ‘‘[b]elieve in yourselves, believe in your future, and believe, once more, in America.’’ Across this Nation, belief in the greatness and goodness of America has come under attack in recent months and years by a dangerous anti-American extremism that seeks to dismantle our country’s history, institutions, and very identity. -

Helen Keller
Helen Keller 1880-1968 Early Life ● Helen Keller was born in June of 1880 in Tuscumbia, Alabama ○ Although she had been born hearing, when she was 19 months old a high fever left Helen Blind and Deaf ● While she was growing up, Keller’s parents indulged her, leading to her being a disobedient child. This was added to by her lack of the ability to communicate, causing her to become frustrated and have many outbursts. ● In 1887, Anne Sullivan entered Keller’s life as her teacher. ○ Anne was able to break through Helen’s barriers by teaching her fingerspelling in American Sign Language. It is said that Helen was feeling water through her fingers in one hand while Anne was fingerspelling the word W-A-T-E-R in the other and things clicked. Expanding Knowledge ● After Helen soaked in information to communicate full sentences using the hand alphabet, she tackled the task of learning Braille, a language consisting of raised dots that one can read by feeling. ● Keller also successfully learned speech, along with becoming an accomplished typist. ● Through all of her studies, including Helen attending the Ivy League school Radcliff, Anne Sullivan was there. ○ Helen became the first Deaf-Blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree Leaving an Impact ● After graduating in 1904, Keller became a world traveler, lecturing, writing, fundraising and raising awareness about issues concerning the disabled, poor and oppressed. ○ She also visited wounded soldiers from World War II, encouraging those who lost their sight in battle to recognize that they could still live a full life. -

The increasingly larger number of publications each year is an indication of the progress of the field which is growing in breadth and depth as well as in number. These entries represent only a small part of the literature and are only a place to start. I am very indebted to my colleagues in the field who gladly share publications in their areas of expertise. Without such sharing this bibliography and others would not be possible. A similar bibliography, but for the year 2000, appeared in the Winter 2003 issue of Disability Studies Quarterly.
