What exactly is impeachment? In U.S. History, only three presidents have been impeached. Those presidents were Andrew Johnson, Bill Clinton and Donald Trump(impeached twice). None were convicted during a trial and finished out their terms of office. President, Richard Nixon, was going to be impeached but he resigned, pressured by members of his own Republican party, before he was impeached.

Use this webquest to introduce students to the issue of impeachment, how the founding fathers determined the use of impeachment in the U.S. Constitution and the history of impeachment.

Other Resources:

There are 10 web questions on this topic(including the Order of Succession and the Checks and Balances between the three branches of government). There is also a short Did You Know? section and several comprehension questions. The Teacher Page includes the key and several extension activities. https://www.TeachShare.com/Product/Impeachment-What-is-this-Word-Called-Impeachment-A-Webquest-3170373
