Thank you @icivics for the swag! I love being a part of the iCivics Educator Newtwork. It has led to great conversations, resources, and connections!

@JMonson158 @MarloweMustangs Haha, yes we let them have them for the last hour of the day!

I don’t know what I am more proud of - the fact my students thought to write a petition or that they correctly identified our middle school team as an oligarchy with a small group of teachers in charge. #winning #civics #marlowe158

Finishing our gummy bear governments today. My students thought our example absolute monarch needed a guillotine to really show his power. Not pictured, decapitated gummy bears… #civics?

[Karen Larson @kalarson158]

It’s always a favorite lesson of students!

@HanzGao22 @PlayBlooket @gimkit @Kahoot @quizlet @quizizz Hi @hanzGao22! I don't think I can do an interview, I coach track after school, and have young children. But if you want to DM me some questions I am happy to type up a few responses!

Dear @PlayBlooket @gimkit @Kahoot @quizlet @quizizz If some tech genius can figure out a way to never have the numbers 6 and 9 next to each other in a join code that would be wonderful. Sincerely, An Exhausted Middle School Teacher
