Public Virtual Field Trip for Students
The Power of Oratory
Tuesday, March 4, 2025
President Lincoln masterfully used oratory, the art of public speaking, to inspire his constituents and those words continue to guide our nation today. Students will actively participate in the examination of the calls to action in two of Lincoln’s speeches, The Gettysburg Address and the Address to the 166th Ohio Regiment, to discover what Lincoln wanted his listeners to do and why.
This program is recommended for Grade 5 -9.
Public Virtual Field Trips are offered via Zoom Webinar and allow many classrooms and students to connect with Ford’s theatre at the same time. Captions will be available for all sessions. For specific requests, additional accommodations or questions, please contact us at [email protected].
