In the lesson you will be given an A4 sheet with questions and tasks on it. Make sure your name is at the top, and hand it in at the end of the lesson.
In order to complete the tasks you will need information from various web-sites.
- The Bill of Rights and other Amendments - use this page and this one
- Powers of the States - use this web-site to find the Senator. Which Presidential candidate the different states supported in the 2008 race can be found here. If you are in need of inspiration when trying to choose the state, you can find a list of states here (you'll also find a map here too).
- And finally - Use this web-site to find out how much you know already about the US system (you'll need shockwave installed - the page should do it automatically). Some of the questions may require a quick internet search. This ,this , this , and this set of pages may be useful too. The first person to finish with full marks wins a prize.
