The material covered includes: -The Legislative Branch -The Executive Branch -The Judicial Branch -Responsibilities of Citizens -The Bill of Rights

Students will use an easy-to-read website to learn about the Native American groups of the past that lived within the United States.  There are 6 different groups. They will learn about their Location, Land and Climate, Shelter, Food, and Transporation. This is a great way to introduce this topic and to get a broad overview of what life was like as a Native American in the past and to understand how different groups adapted to their environments.

As a culmination of a unit on the American Revolution, students create their own board games to play and share with the class about the war.

Students use their textbooks, notes, and information they've learned about the Declaration of Independence to list statements of facts they've learned about the document, ideas, and people that helped shape it. Their statements must begin with a corresponding letter of the word "Independence."
