DIRECTIONS Jot down you notes for each section below.

=__**0:00-0:15**__=

Say hello and make small talk about things going on in the person's life. List four things you could talk about with your person.

1.) Hi, Mr. Sherman! Nice to meet you. I bet you had a lot of responsibility as New Haven's first mayor! 2.) Wow, You were the only person to sign all four of our nation's great documents. 3.) I heard you attended Yale & I want too also 4.) It's amazing that You were in law too and was Justice of the Peace.

=**__0:15-0:30__**=

State why you are calling and the Article and section, or the Amendment you want to discuss.

Why calling?

1.) I actually called to discuss the constitution. 2.) and the second ammendment. 3.) It says "A well-regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." Article and section or Amendment calling about -- explain what it is in everyday language 1.) Basically, This ammendment gives people the right the right to posess guns. 3.) Citizens would get in trouble for having guns without this ammendment.

=__**0:30-0:45**__=

Give an example of how we see that Article or Amendment in action today and if it is still working to benefit us?

1.) Currently, many in the US are debating. 2.) Since there is a ban on handguns in Washington, D.C. 3.) this ban has been in place since 1976. 4.) because of violence in D.C. in the 70s 7.) Now people are debating if this is fair according to the second ammendment. This brings up another topic. Does the ammendment refer to guns for military or everyday people? It is unclear should it be changed? It's possible this problem could lead to the first Supreme Court review in 70 years.

=__**0:45-1:00**__= There are many things named after you like a town called Sherman. Today New Haven has 127,000 people & is third biggest in the state. It's grown much since you were mayor. Your cousin, Eli Whitney, helped New Haven to be rich in the 1800s with his cotton gin. Sorry to cut things short so we'll talk again soon, bye.

//__Write your complete script below!! Do not call unless you have your script completely written. Hand in your script on Wednesday.__//

Me: Hi. Nice to meet you Mr. Sherman. I bet you had a lot of responsibility as New Haven's first mayor! Me: Wow, You were the only person to sign all four of our nation's great documents. Me: I heard you attended Yale. I want to go there! Me: It's amazing that wou were in politics but was also Justice of the Peace. Me: I actually called to discuss the constitution and the second ammendment. Me: It says "A well-regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." Me: This ammendment gives people the right the right to posess guns. Me: If you had a gun you would get in trouble without ammendment two. Me: Currently, many citizens are debating since there is a ban on handguns in the capital. Me: This ban has been in place since 1976 because of D.C.'s violence in the 70s. Me: Now people are debating if this is fair according to the ammendment two. This brings up another topic about whether the ammendment refers to guns for military or everyday people? It is unclear so should it be changed? These problems could lead to the first Supreme Court review in 70 years. Me: I'm going to tell you a little about Connecticut today. Me: You should be proud since there is a town named after you. Me: New Haven is the third largest city in CT with a population of 127,000. A little different then when you were mayor huh? Me: Anyway, Sorry to cut things short, talk soon, bye.
