The Constitution, The Bill of Rights, and Responsibilities

Having to teach your students about government can be tough! This file will make it easier for you to teach and for your students to understand how our great country came to be as it is today. This file includes 3 student interactive books and a PPT to go along with it for you to use on your interactive board, interacitve flip-flaps, a booking making activity for the Bill of Rights, 2 vocabulary assessments, 1 fluency assessment, and 1 standards based assessment to help your students how to answer questions of the state test in reading and writing. To make this topic even more interesting to your students I have included whole class games such as Water War, Word Sneak, and Egg Russian Roulette. Having your students participate in these review games will bring TONS of fun to your classroom learning.

To make you life as a teacher easier I have included a PPT to go the the students interactive books, passages, and vocabulary for you to use on your interactive board. Have you ever bought a product and you wished you could write your own text instead of the text it came with? I sure have! Guess what? This file in a PPT allows you to add your own text into the interactive books I have made. WOW!!!!

Saving INK is also easy with this file, because this file comes in color and b/w!
