Goals / Objectives
Students explore the 27 amendments of the United States Constitution and relate each amendment to their own experiences.
Students develop critical thinking skills by using Bloom’s Taxonomy to create higher level questions for presentations about the amendments.
Students learn how to properly cite resources for their research by using MLA citations and creating a bibliography.
Students sharpen study skills, note taking skills, research techniques, and enhance their reading comprehension.
Students become more engaged in their learning by using a variety of interactive strategies from Marcia L. Tate’s instructional strategy book.
