Empower students to learn the principles that govern the United States with this interactive resource that focuses on democracy, the articles of confederation, compromise, the constitution, and the legislative branches. Providing step-by-step instructions and templates, students will create a personal study resource for class assignments and tests. Lessons are formatted similarly with instructions to create a left side “student output" page and a right side “input" page. The student output page allows students to show what they have learned and may include drawings, foldables, charts, illustrations, graphs, graphic organizers, and extended learning activities. On the right side or input page, students will list the included key details page and/or teacher directed content that may include lecture or textbook notes or guides. An excellent resource that allows students to take ownership of their learning.
Grading rubric and answer keys are included. Additional materials required include a notebook (spiral, composition or 3 ring binder), glue stick, scissors, colored pencils, and tabs. Aligns to current state standards. Reproducible for classroom use. 62 pgs, pb. ~Deanne
