Geography: The Road To The White House: Electoral College (PowerPoint Included)
By Geography & Math Made Easy
What does the United States Constitution say about electing a U.S. President and Vice President? How were they originally elected and what led to the changes in our system, leading to developing the Electoral College? It is essential that our students, as future voters, understand how our President and Vice President are elected every four years through the Electoral College. Students will explore, analyze, and summarize political parties using various avenues. In addition, they will look at the Electoral Process system and how events in history led to the ratification of the 12th Amendment. The lesson begins with a Road to the White House PowerPoint and Doodle Notes and a discussion, a student cooperative reading activity, a creation of the perfect candidate, and more.

NEW! Geography, History, 9-11 We Remember, World Trade Center, Patriot Day
By Geography & Math Made Easy
IMPORTANT: Give students the option to choose not to participate in this lesson if they are anyway connected to the event. Let them know in advance earlier in the week prior to the day of the lesson and allow them to come to you in confidentiality if they wish not to participate. Make another arrangement for that student for the one class period.
This is a factual lesson and does not ask students to imagine or place themselves in others' shoes, yet if a child had a family member or experienced the event his/herself, you may not want to subject them to ANY lesson on this topic. This lesson gives a timeline of events and facts about the event.
ALSO NOTE: The closing activity incorporates a song by the Beastie Boys: "Listen, All You New Yorkers" which was written after 9/11 as a Love Letter to New York. (Look it up on Youtube) Depending on your classroom/school culture, you may or may not choose to use this. This is not mandatory for the lesson, but song and music is a good way to engage students. In saying this, the lyrics included in the lesson have been rewritten to take out questionable wording/content. i.e. LSD, Porno, Hell. These words have been replaced with other words. However, the words cannot be taken out of the Youtube video or song. The lyrics can be used without the video or song, but will not be as effective. IMPORTANT: YOU WILL WANT TO LISTEN TO THE SONG PRIOR TO PURCHASE as this song may not be appropriate for all students/classes/schools. You as the educator are responsible for gaging what is appropriate for your students and are responsible for what is presented to them.
THIS LESSON CAN BE USED WITHOUT THE SONG as it is the closing activity.
OBJECTIVE:
o The learner will become familiar with the events that lead to the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center in New York
o The learner will work in a cooperative group to read about the attack on the World Trade Center outlines in a timeline of the events of the day.
o 10 Facts Cards for the Introduction (Included & Optional
o The learner will understand the impact of this event on the life of an individual through discussion.
o Index cards for questions.
o The learner will listen or watch and then examine the lyrics to the song: A letter to New York: Listen, All You New Yorkers by the Beastie Boys, 2004.
MATERIALS:
o Student group reading assignment included.
o Copy of Lyrics to Listen, All You New Yorkers (included) Rewritten into a cleaner version to replace words like: hell, LSD, Porno, etc.
o Suggested YouTube video for viewing (or) YouTube or Spotify audio version.
Please note that links often change. If this happens, please type in the title of the video in a search engine or on You-
Tube; it should easily be located. Unfortunately, there isn’t a way around this issue. Please watch and use your discernment
on the appropriateness of the presentation for your students, their experiences, and their maturity levels.
o Technology to play the song or show the video.
o Index cards for the “Question Cards” for the reading assignment.
THIS LESSON INCLUDES:
o Detailed Teacher Guide
o Intro Activity
o Reading Activity
o Closing Activity.

The lesson involves movement, energy, creative thinking and most of all, collaboration. All tasks are Language Arts skills-based so that with this engaging lesson, learning is not sacrificed; in fact, students will come away with it with a greater understanding about the importance of Veterans Day.
How does it work?
Your students will work to complete 4 Language Arts-based tasks about Veterans Day in order to learn more about this important holiday and about the veterans of our proud country.
Veterans Day Fun Facts: In the first task, students will read 8 facts about Veterans Day and must identify the parts of speech of underlined words within the passages.
O Say, Can You See: In the second task, students read "The Star-Spangled Banner" and match poetic devices within the song to their definitions.
Veteran-Spiration: In the third task, students read 8 quotes about veterans and patriotism and must identify the incorrectly spelled word in each sentence.
Jig Saw Quote: In the fourth task, students must assemble a jig saw puzzle that, once completed, will reveal a quote about veterans. Once students bring this to you, they have completed the activity!
