The Bill of Rights - What It Means To Me!
By YourTeachingDoc
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!

Letter to a Member of our Military
By Language Arts Excellence
This may be the most meaningful assignment you give to your students all year.
This product teaches students how to write a letter to a service member who is currently deployed overseas. It describes the importance of writing to our military and gives suggestions for what to say. I use this as an extra credit assignment and hold my students to high standards about the content of their letters. It is incredibly important that genuine thought and effort go into the letters as they are going to real people currently fighting for our country.
If you are in need of a contact to send the letters to, please either message me through TeachShare or email me at language.arts.excellence@gmail.com and I will provide you with the necessary information.
