In honor of the completion of the Lincoln Memorial 100 years ago in 1922, National Mall and Memorial Parks rangers and their friends lead a teacher professional development series through 6 virtual, one-hour sessions for educators.

In January’s teacher workshop session in honor of the 100th anniversary of the Lincoln Memorial dedication, National Park Service rangers will be “Decoding Gettysburg.” Join Gettysburg National Military Park's Education Specialist to analyze the Gettysburg Address (inscribed on the Lincoln Memorial) line-by-line, and then work to decode the elements of monumentation -- from their text, symbolism, materials, and location -- around the park.
