Today's quote: I am peace with God; my conflict is with man. -Charlie Chaplin

Today's journal entry: What is the "greatest speech" you have ever given that later turned into regret?

Lesson:   Today, you will work as a class using smart phones and tablets. Please make sure you are 
doing the activity of which you have been tasked.

Researching on teams of three, you have to have one speaker, one scribe, and one task/timekeeper. There should be a total of 6 teams is everyone is present.

In your team, you are to research the top 18 speeches of all time. You can do this by researching the 
most popular speeches of all time and finding the 18 that are in common on the list.

Once that has been done, you will need to find the most popular quotes that came from those speeches. These should be quotes that most everyone would recognize because of the popularity of the speech. 
You cannot use the one from the quote today.

After that has been determined, the scribe will write down those 18 quotes and from what speech they came.

You will turn in the papers at the end of the period with everyone's name from the team.

HW: 

Reminders: Make-up speeches will be done Tuesday after school.
The blog looks funky. Sorry! I could not figure out why!!
