Team 6 had the opportunity to see Dr. Sterling in action during our mini field trip. It was very interesting to watch him perform and tell all of the interesting stories that he had about Abraham Lincoln. He started the presentation by having one of the student's wear an Abraham Lincoln mask and read the Pledge of Allegiance. The Pledge contains the most important ideas. The student just so happened to be our wonderful group member Sydney! She did a wonderful job as 'Honest Abe.' Dr. Sterling told very enthusiastic stories of what life was like for Abraham Lincoln. His life changed in the White House when he had to lead the country through the Civil War. We learned that Tad, his son, was a very jolly spirit and actually brought a goat into a cabinet meeting! Tad helped his father to have some happy moments.
Meeting Dr. Sterling was a great experience for all involved and we are so glad that we were able to experience all that we did!
