> > 2)Put hero’s life into perspective–when did they live, where, who were they trying to help, why, how, why was this important? > > Abraham Lincoln is my hero because he saved the slaves in the south. > Abraham Lincoln helped slavery because he was antislavery and helped the slaves. He helped the slaves because he thought that every race should be treated equally. Abraham Lincoln lived 1809 - 1865. He was are 16th President. He was in office from 1861 to 1865. He thought that slavery was wrong and so do I. I believe that slavery is wrong because everybody should be treated equal. He lived as a president and in his early life he lived in a cottage. > > > > 3)

 * 1) He was a person that you can look up to because he was a person that saved many lives. He became president and saved all of the slaves in the south. He made a big change in life. Without him, who knows, we might still have slaves. Abraham Lincoln saved a slave but he was already half free. He made alot of things equal like Martin Luther King but Lincoln only saved the slaves. He is a hero because he did something good in his life and that is the way we should leave it. He saved a lot of lives from starvation. Abraham Lincoln is a star hero and that is what he will always be. He went through battles and fights just to protect his country and his people.

 * 3) A hero is a person who people look up just like Abraham Lincoln. He was the best president I would say because he made one of the biggest changes of all times. He made a change in the world and that is what heros do. Abraham Lincoln is an exceptional hero because he saved thousands of people from slavery. Abraham Lincoln is still a hero because he has been in our lives and in our history. So that is also why he is a hero. Some people didnt like what he was doing with the slaves and this may have caused his assassination.

Abrahams legacy I would say is a lifesaver because he saved lives like I told you before. He is a lifesaver because he made big risks to save the slaves. He saved many lives. If he didn't save the slaves lifves it may have been a lot different today. Abraham Lincoln saved so many lives, in fact, he lead troops to fight for civil rights and good rights. He is a great hero to look up to because he was a good person to many people, but also some people disliked him. He was a child that was born in a cottage and then became a big hero. He came a long way and he decided to save people, make a change, and became our 16th President.
