We the People: The Citizen & the Constitution, Level 3 (High School)

Middel School Book
Fourth Edition

The fourth edition of We the People: The Citizen & the Constitution features text, images, exercises, and Supreme Court cases to ensure that the next generation of Americans has the intellectual tools they need to become informed and engaged citizens. We the People gives high school students a firm understanding of government and citizenship. Students explore the history and principles of constitutional democracy through critical-thinking exercises, cooperative-learning and participation in a simulated congressional hearing. The We the People student textbook contains six units and 39 lessons. The updated teacher's guide contains a step-by-step walkthrough of the student book, interactive teaching strategies, reproducible handouts, and a multiple choice end-of-course assessment. Simulated congressional hearings, a key feature of We the People, provide authentic assessment of student comprehension (find examples here). A free We the People Resource Center is available for students and teachers. Videos found in the Media section for each lesson feature constitutional scholars discussing each section of the textbook. We the People is aligned with the Educating for American Democracy Roadmap framework and the Common Core State Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies.  400 pages © 2016
