How are you planning for the inauguration in your classroom? I know that we are trying to figure out if we can watch the swearing-in (our students may be in lunch, where there are not televisions), but what else are you doing?
I have been perusing this and getting some great ideas, but I would love to hear what others are doing, too!

I am going to be weaving the inauguration into my “Take a Stand” unit that we will be starting next week (focusing on different non-violent leaders and tolerance). My director just sent us an email with this link: http://www.tolerance.org/teach/activities/activity.jsp?ar=1041 for lesson plans from Teaching Tolerance. I am going to be looking at them in depth this weekend.
I would also like to see if my students can watch the swearing in and I want to discuss the poet/poem as well.
