Create-A-Candidate Civics Activity
Social Studies, Government, Grade 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities, Projects
Genericbury City Election Activity Teacher Guide: Goal Statement: Students will be able to analyze how candidates respond to the needs and wishes of the community in order to become more electable, in order to better understand the relationship between representatives and their voters. 2 to 4 50 Minute Class Periods In this activity , students are wrestling with what it means to be “electable”. They will create a candidate to run against others. This can be assigned as a group assignment (so that 3 or 4 candidates are running against each other in each class), a class assignment (so that each class is constructing one candidate together to run against other sections of the class), or individually (so that each student has the ability to create their own candidate). There are countless extension activities you can do, from holding debates to having the class vote for a candidate other than their own to see who was most convincing. You can also lean into potential “holes” in candidates. For instance, if one group made their candidate a millionaire, maybe that candidate is “out of touch” with regular citizens. If another group made a candidate with 8 kids, maybe they “simply won’t have the time to govern”. There are a handful of sections students will move through. You can provide the candidate packet to students/groups as a digital file or in printed form: 1. Candidate Name 2. Candidate Appearance 3. Candidate Background and Resume 4. Candidate Slogan 5. Campaign Stances 6. Campaign Finances You can assist them in these sections and talk about benefits and drawbacks of each decision. This activity is designed to be non-partisan, which is why it is a local election activity . Try to keep students focused on the 5 “major issues” outlined in the activity . You can use the polling section to help them prioritize various issues. In general this activity can be very fun, and I suggest seeking potential scandals and other events that might happen to the community to spark excitement in the room. This can be a fun activity for students to use their creativity, wit, and sense of humor! With further questions, reach out to me at tristanjbernhard@gmail.com .

Homologous Series of Alkanes – Word Search Activity A differentiated puzzle set to support terminology and topic review in organic chemistry (Grades 8–11) 🧪🧩 This word search activity is designed to help students consolidate their understanding of alkanes and the structure of homologous series in a fun and engaging way. Instead of traditional worksheets, this format offers a quiet, focused task that can be used for reinforcement, revision, or simply as a meaningful time filler. You’ll find a total of 10 word search puzzles, each in two variants (A/B), and five levels of difficulty. The level of challenge increases with the size of the word grid and the direction of the hidden terms. The puzzles include key vocabulary from the topic of alkanes and are ideal for supporting students' familiarity with hydrocarbon structures and related terminology. Included in this resource: 10 unique word search puzzles × 2 variants (A and B) 5 levels of differentiation (marked with 1 to 5 stars) Terms appear forward only or forward and backward (depending on level) All solutions included Colorful and black-and-white versions for flexible printing Self-created chemistry-themed clipart for visual support How I use it in class: I like to use these puzzles at the end of a topic, during quiet work phases, or even as an option for early finishers. The A/B versions are helpful when students sit next to each other – it prevents simple copying but keeps the task structure consistent. The varying difficulty levels also allow you to match tasks to students’ needs without having to explain separate instructions. Whether students are revisiting the basics of alkanes or preparing for more advanced organic chemistry, this puzzle format keeps them engaged and focused. A practical, ready-to-use activity that brings a bit of variety into the chemistry classroom – and helps build confidence with technical terms.
