90 Seconds Social Studies assignments introduce students to a large amount of information in a relatively short amount of time. The one minute time limit serves as both a way to keep students on task, and to promote the idea of summarizing key details. This particular assignment, the 90 Seconds Social Studies - Amendments, contains the following:

• Teacher Quick Reference Guide
• Student Sign-up Sheet for Amendments
• 10 and 25 Point Rubric for a presentation on the Amendments

This listing also includes free access to the Google Slides:

• Student Note Taking Guide (with designated space for notes and comprehension questions)
• 90 Second Social Studies Amendments

This Student Notebook can be used with or separate from the 90 Second Social Studies Amendments

The notebook includes a list of the 27 Amendments with room to write notes for each individual. A page of reflection questions for further study, and two extra pages of notes.

This resource is a template for a 90 Second Social Studies assignment that includes 27 ready to edit slides on the American Amendments

What is a 90 Second Social Studies Assignment?

90 Second Social Studies Assignments introduce students to a large amount of information in a relatively short amount of time. The 90 second time limit serves as both a way to keep students on task, and to promote the idea of summarizing key details. 90 Second Social Studies Assignments can cover concepts, historical figures, landmarks, and events. 

Why does this assignment use Google Slides?

One of the issues with student presentations is the transition time between student presenters. When the presentations are all on the same google slide, transitions become seamless. Google Slides also enables students to work simultaneously on the assignment, and for teachers to observe edits and work in real time.

Students often can/will recite the basics of SOME of the Bill of Rights but often do not know how they apply to their personal life. They believe that it was written years ago and does not have any relevant meaning to the HERE and NOW. With this interactive activity, my US History and Government classes dived into the Bill of Rights and learned how to apply each of the Amendments to their personal life. This brought about outstanding debates in class (and online) about civil rights and liberties.

This was created as a PDF document to use in the classroom. There is also a Digital Learning Format where it can be assigned to students to complete in a virtual setting such as Google Classroom, Canvas, etc.

I hope your students enjoy this as much as mine did!
