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 Hello Oliver Ellsworth. Today I am going to discuss a certain Amendment with you, but first, I would like to talk about your accomplishments in life.

2 You attended Yale and Princeton, two of the best schools in the country. What was it like going there? Did you get a good education? I imagine you got an excellent one because of your work as a lawyer.

3 And you also were chosen to be in the Continental Congress. Wow, what an honor.

4 But the biggest accomplishment would deffinately be appointed to Chief Justice in the Supreme Court. You are such an influential man. I bet many people admire you.

Why calling? Article and section or Amendment calling about

1 So, lets talk about an Amendment

2** Well, today I am calling you to discuss Amendment number one


 * 3** This amendment states Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances


 * -- explain what it is in everyday language

1** In plain everyday language this means that every U.S citizen has the right to praise whatever religion they want


 * 2** They can say or write whatever they want


 * 3** And they can protest and petition

=__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?

1Who-**Currently, the Writers Guild of America are striking


 * 2What- They are striking because they are not getting paid their share of DVD's

4Where- This is happening in LA and NYC

6How-Many popular shows are on hiatus or they are not making new episodes

The writers are expressing their right to protest and petition

7Keep it? Change it? Why?-This Amendment definately should be kept because unlike in many countries, Americans are not penelized for speaking or writing what they want**
