American Government

American Government enables teachers and students alike to enjoy a strong connection between history and the present. The principles of the Constitution have deep historical application and are exemplified in the news every day. This course connects current events to constitutional principles as a foundation for writing and class simulations. In this course, students learn not what to think but how to think. Course materials and class discussions enable students to learn a process of thinking useful for effective communication and civic competency by examining issues from all sides in their historical context.

Testimonials:“I was a lawyer for 14 years before becoming a teacher. I became certified to teach at mid-school year and I was immediately assigned to teach Government at Alchesay High School, located on the White Mountain Apache Indian Reservation. I had less than a week to prepare for class. George’s materials were invaluable in assisting me in getting ready to teach on such short notice. His lessons reflect the latest and best methods for delivering compelling lessons to students. The lessons center around essential questions, and identify desired enduring understandings. The material is well organized. The content is excellent. George has compiled one excellent lesson after another. Standards are addressed. Daily objectives are easy to find. Vocabulary is identified. The result is hands-on activities that truly prepare students for productive citizenship after graduation. Equally important, George’s materials prepared me as a teacher to deliver high quality lessons in a professional manner.”– James C. Lerch
