Product Description for Mock Legislative Session Simulation- Write your own legislation Bill Fair!

Make civics exciting and practical for students using this Social Studies simulation emulating the Legislative Branch. This Legislative Branch Simulation has become one of the highlights in my government class. Students love the opportunity to write bills in hopes of influencing change in their state and local communities. Students chose to solve a state or local problem, research the problem, and work through a solution. But first: students will look at a sample bill and participate in a Readers Theater simulation of the process of each round: Opening Speech, Non-Debatable Technical Questions, Pro Debate, Con Debate, and Closing Speech. Students will then look at the prep sheets that align with the sample bills of how they can encourage debate by planting questions, pro debate, or con debate on the legislative floor. Each round should last about 60 seconds! You could even JUST use this part for the simulation and not do the Bill Fair portion where students write their own bill. It's just that detailed. Students then work through the worksheets that make it easy for the teacher- because they explain it all! Pick and chose which parts you want the students to do. Learning about the law-making process is good, but actively being engaged in the process is great!

How Does It Work?

It’s Magic!

Actually it’s all Made Using Excel Formulas and Cell References.

I HATE writing seating charts and I made these so I wouldn’t have to anymore.

But I didn’t stop there... I wanted a way to organize students more efficiently for checking work and giving feedback, as well as having a way to modify my seating chart based on my instructional needs, so I made all kinds of seating charts and used my knowledge of Excel to make this SMART. (How to instructions and videos are included!!)

What Can You Do With This?

• Sort students by mastery to focus on a specific part of the classroom for intervention
• Sort students by work speed to give feedback to students who may work more quickly, and give those students who may work slower more time to complete their assignment before having feedback.
• Sort student translators with non-native speakers for assistance.
• Add a column with #1 (and sort) to designate students who may be on the cusp of advancing .These students will be at the front of your check-ins during independent practice.
• Quickly see what classifications students might have (Special Education, 504 plans, Emergent Bilinguals) so you can provide supplemental materials required by law or your school.
• When you print this out, the Legend is not visible to students or to a substitute. Student information will not be shared outside of the circle it needs to stay in. (requires numbers or letters in the columns)
• Change your seating chart instantly to adapt student seating based on instructional goals.
• Use this column under the student's name: (HW/Late/Beh) to track homework submission, tardiness, and behavior - see trends on a weekly basis.
• Use the column with 1 2 3 to track the student's mastery on a particular day OR how often you have checked in with them.
• Best of all, you only need to copy and paste your student names to get started. Everything else will auto populate in the seating chart!
