A Word of Advice Whenever a new president takes office, previous presidents often offer words of wisdom. Writing from the perspective of one of the first four presidents (Washington, Adams, Jefferson, or Madison), write a letter to President Obama. This letter should provide useful advice on how to ensure a successful presidency. Please include specific factual evidence as support for your advice. Things to consider: What challenges has/will Obama face? Are these challenges similar to situations faced by your president? What lessons did your president learn from his time in office? How will they help Obama be a better president?

6-week Reflection What is something you like? What is something you’d change? What can Ms. Mueller do to help you be more successful? What can you do to help yourself be more successful?
