This young man worked several different jobs such as a shopkeeper, surveyor, postmaster, and a soldier. This inspiring future president never gave up when times were difficult. ]]> 2017-05-22 15:27:06 UTC https://padlet.com/cpetromelis/xvyff2zmalgb/wish/173174237 cpetromelis https://padlet.com/cpetromelis/xvyff2zmalgb/wish/173434685 February 12, 1809-April 15, 1865]]> 2017-05-23 16:11:46 UTC https://padlet.com/cpetromelis/xvyff2zmalgb/wish/173434685 cpetromelis https://padlet.com/cpetromelis/xvyff2zmalgb/wish/173658996 Did you know that Abraham Lincoln was a history-changing president?  During the fifth week of his presidency, Honest Abe had to deal with the Civil War and fight against Confederacy States in an effort to end slavery.  This awesome president thought everybody should be treated equally and therefore slavery should be abolished.  The Civil War would potentially split the U.S. as the North was against slavery but the South was for slavery.  Abe worked extremely hard to quickly manage his troops.  Year by year, the war raged on but Lincoln was confident in his choices.  The war went on for approximately four years.  The Union was eventually successful and a law was passed stating that blacks could no longer be slaves.  Now slaves were free and Abraham Lincoln was credited for keeping the Union united. ]]> 2017-05-24 15:52:44 UTC https://padlet.com/cpetromelis/xvyff2zmalgb/wish/173658996 cpetromelis https://padlet.com/cpetromelis/xvyff2zmalgb/wish/174449099 2017-05-30 16:06:44 UTC https://padlet.com/cpetromelis/xvyff2zmalgb/wish/174449099 cpetromelis https://padlet.com/cpetromelis/xvyff2zmalgb/wish/174450588 *Did you know that when Abe Lincoln was little, he lived in a log cabin that had one room?
