Fourth Graders Visual-Literacy Lesson on Abraham Lincoln: The Gettysburg Addresss Produced by: Julia Da Silva Beharry, October 11, 2011
Four score and seven years ago
conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
We are met on • a great battlefield of that war.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure.
We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that nation might live.
It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground.

Therefore as a future curriculum specialist I will develop this PowerPoint presentation (The Gettysburg Address) and include additional graphics, Word Art and other software programs. This lesson will also be used to produce both hard copy and multimedia presentations towards enhancing pedagogical skills and stimulating students learning beyond a historical path.
