Star-Spangled Banner
by Francis Scott Key
Oh, say! Can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say! Does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say! Does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

Self-Advocacy
· Self-Advocacy: The act or condition of representing oneself formally or informally. (World English Dictionary)
· Student self-advocacy can include any action, verbal or written, which describes a particular problem a student is encountering, requests action by another person, to assist the student in resolving the problem.
· A student might be self-advocating to an individual (such as directly to a teacher or peer), to an institution (such as a school), or to a company or organized body.
· Since students know their own situations the best, they can often be the best advocates for themselves, and need to learn this life skill.
· Problems should be communicated in a clear and concise fashion, and students should be prepared to listen to the responses from the person/agency from whom they seek help.
