Introduction

(15 minutes)
  • Show a picture of students saying the pledge, or a promise.
  • Ask your students to make an inference regarding what they see in the photo. Potential guiding questions include: What is this student doing? Does this look familiar? What does his posture look like? What body language do you see in the picture that is different from ours?
