What educators are saying
This was a challenge (in the best way) for my 5th graders. We took our time on it and really enjoyed it!
Really cool and engaging activity that allows students to truly experience and understand the downfalls of the Articles rather than just hear someone talk about it!
Description
Students who are in 13 groups will try to choose 3 toppings on a pizza while they are operating under the same rules as the Confederate Congress did. They will find that choosing a pizza with 3 toppings that is agreeable to the rest of the class is nearly impossible while still representing the rest of the student body. Students will draw comparisons to the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation at the end. Use it to introduce the Articles or after for students to understand its problems.
