Autobiography- Lady Bird Johnson - JFK Assassination - Point of View - Tone Mood
I am a strong believer that all texts must have meaningful content. Student's today are so immersed in their technology that history fades into the past. They don't have any interest in seeking it out so as teachers, we need to ensure they read it anywhere and everywhere. That is where this memoir from Lady Bird Johnson's A White House Diary - Excerpt comes in. The colorful language and meaningful writing brings the day of John F.
