About This Product
The Engaging Congressional Simulation is an interactive activity that brings Congress to life in your classroom. Students take on the role of Senators, representing the voters of their state. They must pass or reject bills based on their voters' preferences, requiring thoughtful decision-making and political strategy. To get bills passed, students engage in lively deal-making and persuasion with their fellow Senators. This 16-page package includes everything needed to conduct the simulation: teacher directions, a guiding slideshow that explains key concepts, spreadsheets to track bill votes, and pointers for debriefing. The activity covers topics like bipartisanship, filibusters, party politics, and the legislative process. Students find it entertaining while gaining insight into how Congress really works. Use it to supplement instruction on government or hold an exciting Congressional simulation that your students will always remember.
