Description

This consumable workbook provides students with an easy-to-follow plan for establishing, creating, and maintaining an interactive notebook that centers upon a study of the U.S. Constitution. The book includes mini-lessons, correlating interactive notebook pages, and informational text reading selections that cover the Articles of Confederation and the Constitutional Amendments. This interactive approach to diagramming social studies concepts encourages students to become active participants in their own learning. The lessons challenge students to create models and demonstrate their knowledge through artistic creation, labeling, and verbal explanation. While this publication has many benefits, it is not designed to function as a truly comprehensive study of the U.S. Constitution. 64 pgs, pb. ~ Mike
