Created for middle grades, these ten active-learning lessons immerse students in the workings of U.S. government through hands-on simulations and engaging role-play scenarios.
Government Activators Level I offers a dynamic approach to “participatory government,” drawing students into civic life by putting them at the center of realistic, thought-provoking activities.
In these lessons, students:
- negotiate rights between citizens and leaders in a fictional society;
- step into the role of Cabinet secretaries advising the president;
- argue a Bill of Rights case before a simulated Supreme Court.
Each lesson includes:
- a historical background essay;
- a graphic organizer and word bank;
- activity-specific handouts;
- detailed procedures and multiple assessment options.
Lessons are designed to run 3–4 class periods each and can be used independently or as a flexible supplement to your government or civics curriculum.
