grade students in Tier II literacy intervention will create a presentation explaining
why Americans honor and remember George Washington.
Instructions for Students
1. Watch Prezi presentation, using graphic organizer to take notes. Students may pause,
rewind, and re-watch or reread as needed.

of the presentation does not matter as much as the content.

and images to share learning about two of Washingtons greatest accomplishments,
and why he is honored and remembered.

Instructions for Teacher
1. While students progress through the presentation, observe, answer questions, and
check in with students to correct any misconceptions.

notes. Encourage students to think about why Washingtons accomplishments are
important and why he is fondly remembered.
3. Review directions for Google Slides activity (see Instructions for Students above).

project with the teacher on Google Drive.
