Learning Our Rights: Civics Resources for Informed Students

Help me give my students resources and rewards to grow as a global citizen and recognize their civic duty.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Lepak's classroom raised $246

This project is fully funded

My Project

At the start of next school year, I will be teaching civics to 11th grade students. My students are curious, passionate, and interested in the world and government around them.

Considering the current political climate, many students want to learn their government system to make a change for the better.

By including classroom decor related to the subject and having hand outs of democracy pins and pocket constitutions, students will be able to have a quick reference and confidence in their knowledge and understanding of the country they reside in. With your help, my students will become informed youth in the United States, which we need now more than ever.
