My Famous Speech

In the big kid's room we are doing rhetorical analysis of famous speeches. My speech of choice was the oration delivered by Franklin Delano Roosevelt after the Japanese attacked pearl Harbor. He uses specific language to make the U.S. seem innocent and the American people the victims of a horrid crime. His reason to do so is to rally the people of America together against the Japanese. This is an awesome speech that was delivered beautifully. And he was able to unite the American
people under the banner of patriotism and in defense of the country they love. This speech carries so much meaning and significance. I can't wait to really analyze this work of art. This is just one more thing we do in the big kid's room.
