I'm ready for our Academic Team Competition. I had a meeting yesterday for English Academic Team and I believe we're going to do well. We're studying "An American Generation from 1964-1980". It involves literature from that time period like the Martin Luther King Jr. speech from Birmingham Jail, Birmingham, Alabama, Nixon's Resignation speech, Robert F. Kennedy's speech on the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X: "The Ballot or the Bullet" speech and Jimmy Carter's "Crisis in Confidence" speech. My thing that I had to be really good at were the speeches and I'm planning on rereading them before the competition. I've liked studying these speeches because it gives me an in-depth look at United States history and the people that have made the United States what it is today.

I sent your coach a bunch of questions on that, so you now have plenty of things to practice with.
Good luck to all the teams!
