U.S. Elections: A Student-Centered Project-Based Unit for 4th-6th Grades

$4.99

Your students want to learn and they love when given a chance to take charge of their learning! That is why I’ve created this U.S. Elections themed resource that will give them the opportunities they need to take charge, make decisions, collaborate and learn…all while creating a wonderful project! This resource will give the students the opportunity to learn about different aspects of U.S. elections (whether local or national) and at the same time give them choices as to what they want (or need) to focus on. It will also give them the opportunity to choose how they want to work (alone or in a group) and how they present their findings (notebooking or lapbooking).

Of course, if you as the teacher, want (or need) to assign specifics and give them less control, you can do that as well. This resource is flexible!

Description

Several informational text pages have been provided but students should be encouraged to read books and find other resources to gather information. Perhaps they can watch an upcoming televised debate. Perhaps they can attend a townhall meeting or interview someone.

Included:

  • Teacher pages for instructions, explanations and evaluations and more
  • Sample questions to get students ‘thinking’
  • Over 100 pages for students to select from when designing their projects! (These student pages have been created ‘in color’ but can easily be printed in b/w or grayscale to save $$$).

  • Beginner’s American History
    $1.00

    This 257-page book holds an 1893 copyright and was written to give information about historical figures living just before and during the beginning of United States history. It is not meant to be used as a textbook but rather a supplement to add stories and facts about the people written about within the pages. It is recommended for 5th-12th grades.

    Suggested uses: Use with your regular curriculum to add another layer of information or give to students to use as a source information when doing research and/or projects.

    Because of the 1893 copyright, this is a public domain resource. All-Access members may download it for free (as with all resources on our site). Non-members are asked to purchase this resource at a very low cost to help cover data storage and transfer costs.
