Product Details
Bring students face to face with the dilemmas, compromises, and struggles of writing the U.S.Constitution. Students live in a fictional confederation that is plagued with many of the same problems America faced in the 1780s - huge debts, border threats, a currency crisis, and a weak national government. Students weigh the pros and cons of the Articles of confederation and decide where they want power to reside - within states or the national government. They also come to understand the importance of the separation and balance of power.
