Wrap Up Activity
As a wrap up activity students, in groups, will create a third party to address an issue of local school or community concern. In development of this party each group must:

  • Identify a relevant issue and create a "platform" to address the issue
  • Create a party name and slogan
  • Choose a famous person who they believe embodies their ideals

    To complete this task, groups will present their ideas to the class by:

  • Create a poster(s) to promote their idea
  • Complete an essay detailing their party platform and how their party truly addresses a need in their school or community
