Class Government Project w/computers

The history of writing the U.S. Constitution is at the center of lessons in Kim Miller’s social studies in Grade 8. The students are participating in an online simulation during which they become a member of the original Constitutional Convention. On a teen-based, Internet news site, students will be blogging with other students across the country and sharing their opinions through news articles. During the unit, the students will also be utilizing a site that allows them to review vocabulary appropriate to the content.
