George Washington, the general who commanded the North American Army in the War of

On the 12

Kentucky. His name was Abraham Lincoln and he lived with his parents and his sister in a hut
made of logs (слайд № 3)
Life was not very easy for the Lincoln family. In all his life Abraham never went to school for
more than a year, and then he had five different teachers (слайд № 2)
When he was grown-up, Lincoln once passed a large open market place, and there for the first
time he saw Negromen, women and even children who were sold as slaves to white masters. He
also saw how unkindly these poor slaves were treated. At the time he said nothing, but he never
forgot it and he decided to help the slaves.
Later he became a lawyer. The people of Illinois made him a member of parliament (слайд №

VI. Listen to the poem.
Abraham Lincoln. (слайд № 13)
(Mildred Plew Meigs)
Remember he was poor and country - bred,
His face was lined; his walked with awkward gait
Smart people laughed at him sometimes and said,
"How can so very plain a man be great?"
Remember he was humble, used to toil.
Strong arms he had to build a shack, a fence,
Long legs to tramp the woods to plow the soil,
A head chuck full of back woods common sense.
Remember all he ever had he earned.
He walked in time through stately White House doors,
But all he knew of men and life he learned
In little backwoods cabins, country stores.
Remember that his eyes could light with fun,
That wisdom, courage, set his name apart;
But when the rest is duly said and done;
Remember that men loved him for his heart.
VII. Role-play.
Teacher: One of you will be the President Abraham Lincoln.
