On Sat I asked Bob Woodward given his historical and current vantage point what would he have me say to my civics classes to combat their cynicism of America and it’s government. Claimed I stumped. Students want to talk. Anyone else in for this? Danielle Allen Linda Monk

Civic education for the win! My AP Govt students are civilly debating bills in their mock Congress and no one has suggested a charity cage match to settle differences. #thekidsareallright #civiceducationmatters

Excited to hear the first presidential debate is hosted at the National Constitution Center—it’s fitting to debate who holds the presidency in context of the Constitution!

US History, Civics, and AP Govt folks--if you are not using Street Law teaching materials, you are missing out on engaging kids through case studies. See store.streetlaw.org/resource/using… for tangible ideas to make history and civics come alive through case summaries.

These are fantastic high quality videos created by iCivics and the amazing Linda Monk. I use them throughout my semester Civics classes and specifically to teach the Civics portion of the naturalization test. #civiced

I’m leaving X as I cannot support anything relating to Elon Musk. Until I get set up elsewhere, I can be found on Facebook. I’m under no illusion I have that great an impact on this platform but do appreciate all I’ve learned from many of you.
