It is your job to design a new and different memorial that tells more of Washington’s accomplishments. • Your monument can take whatever shape or form you want (tower, building, statue, wall, garden) but it must include the following: • Something representing Washington’s character • Something representing Washington’s service during the war. • Something representing Washington’s goals for the well-being of the country • Something representing the Farewell address • Something representing a problem and solution faced during Washington’s time in office (check your RWSQ) • Something representing a precedent set by Washington. • 4. Your monument should be neatly presented on the paper. Use color and labels to make your meanings clear. Include a short paragraph describing your monument and explaining why you made it the way that you did. #9 Farewell Address: Political Parties #10 The Apotheosis of Washington
