Classwork & Homework:
Students worked on the Enumerated Powers of Congress Worksheet. There will be more time in class to work on this, but it is due for a grade when completed.
We watched the movie Mr. Smith Goes to Washington and they filled out the attached video guide questions. Students will be working in pairs to write their own bill and brief about something they care about. They will have FOUR days in a computer lab to do this assignment and prepare. They should use the attached template to write their bill and use the handout as a guideline for what needs to be done for this assignment. Also, I am attaching an example of a bill that was written for a state legislative session. Students filled out the How a Bill Becomes a Law WS and turned it in. Students worked in class on the Committee and Organization of Congress worksheets. Part of these WS do require using pgs. 322-333 in the American Gov. textbook. |
