I am sending home a copy of the Mustang Award tracking sheet.
Here are some resource documents for some of the "do at home" items.
List of presidents.
Historic/Patriotic Passages (can have the text in front of you for support, but please don't just stand there and read it - be expressive, be theatrical)
Paul Revere's Ride
The Gettysburg Address
Excerpt from the Declaration of Independence
Preamble to the Constitution
Casey at the Bat
Excerpt from "I Have a Dream"
You can also choose to an excerpt (approximately 3-5 minutes) from any of the speeches found on American Rhetoric.
There are some famous speeches by American Women listed here. I don't have the texts linked at this time. But these are all useable as well.
How NOT to sound while reciting! (funny)
