DESCRIPTION:The Will Rogers Memorial Museum has developed a lesson series for educators on Will Rogers and his influence on politics and citizenship. Each lesson includes a short video about Will Rogers and his influence on politics with accompanying discussion questions. \nThe five lessons\, one for each day\, ask thought-provoking questions such as\, “How can we disagree and still be friends?” and “How hard do you think it would be to be president?” Public and private educators can access this lesson series free of charge to use during Civic Learning Week and beyond. The estimated time investment is 10 minutes per day.

SUMMARY:Scholar Exchange with the National Constitution Center
DESCRIPTION:My Advanced Government/Civics class had a scholar exchange with Sarah Harris of the National Constitution Center and Judge Karoline Mehalchick\, a recently appointed federal district court judge\, about the 14th Amendment. My students were challenged by questions about what citizenship is and what rights and responsibilities do citizens have. It was an informative and fun session. The students were still talking about the exchange after the NCC and the judge signed off.

SUMMARY:Classroom Citizenship Reflection
DESCRIPTION:We began Civic Learning Week by reflecting on what it means to be a “good citizen” in school\, as we reviewed classroom agreements with our new trimester class groups. Through a gallery walk students used sticky notes to provide examples of five pillars of school citizenship: following school rules\, being respectful of school property\, displaying good character\, being respectful of other people and their property\, and giving back to the school community.
