Hello kind historian. I am currently writing a script that stars a shy History Teacher who is in desperate need to regain his students respect. The climax of the story has Matt, the History Teacher, dress up as Abe Lincoln and win back his students.

He is speaking as Lincoln and is trying to be inspirational and informative at the same time. The kids he is speaking to are in HIGH SCHOOL.

Can you please help?

EDIT: I need help coming up with what a high school history teacher, acting like Lincoln, would say to win his students back. Something that covers a high school curriculum.
