Hi Lisa,<br />
There seems to be a ton of FABULOUS teaching ideas online the past few weeks. I took one idea from teachervision.com regarding the Inaugural Poem and will be using it as a teachable moment with my students tomorrow.<br />
I've posted it on my blog: <a href="http://blogs.scholastic.com/9_12/2009/01/a-few-weeks-ago.html">http://blogs.scholastic.com/9_12/2009/01/a-few-weeks-ago.html</a><br />
Enjoy the day!

Back in November I had my 7th and 8th grade students write an essay about Barack Obama's Election Night speech and the results were very good. The question could be used for his Inauguration speech as well.<br />

For New York City Department of Education Teachers<br />
<br />
The NYC DOE has partnered with ABC News to provide schools with a live Internet video stream of the presidential inauguration on January 20. The ideal location for viewing the broadcast is an auditorium, cafeteria, or large library with projection capabilities (including a laptop or computer with an Internet connection).<br />
<br />
New York City teachers and administrators interested in taking advantage of this service can e-mail their borough technology manager (see the list at <a href="http://www.nycboe.net/schools/principals/weekly/20080106/borough_tech_managers.doc">www.nycboe.net/schools/principals/weekly/20080106/borough_tech_managers.doc</a>). The subject of your e-mail should be “INAUGURATION.” Your borough technology manager will contact your to schedule a visit by a technician who will assess your school’s capability to access the video stream. Technicians will work with your staff to set up and test the necessary equipment. If your school has limited technology resources or no large viewing space, the technician will explore possible alternative solutions (e.g., utilizing existing cable television service).<br />
