Flipped Video on Federalism

I got creative with this one and created an arch-nemesis for my sidekick Mike, the History-Loving Robot.  In this episode of Social Studies Download, students learn and then have to pass an assessment to save Mike and the Space Station of Discovery.  I think I'm on to something here, and this was fun to make!  Check it out!

Learning about civics and saving fake lives... love it.  Check out the ICivics website for a game called "Power Play" that deals with federalism.  I'm pairing this video with that activity.

My 8th graders graduated today.  I already miss them.

Until next time,
