Excellent
sequential lesson plans from
Kinder through to 12th grade are available at this site, beginning
with the meaning and necessity of authority (limited power) in Kinder, on
through to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. It makes sense if we are
going to be teaching civics for the long run. I must add it is a wonderful
opportunity for many students who have never even heard of our cherished 1st
amendment!
