United States Citizenship: Student Text

Reading Level 3 - 4.5
Interest Level 5 - 12

Program Description

Living in the United States series is an abbreviated version of traditional basal programs. The low reading level; sophisticated page layout; and up-to-date, age-appropriate visuals make each Student Text and accompanying activities appealing to struggling readers. The standards-based programs are appropriate for on-level students, students with learning differences, and students and adults reading below grade level.

Features of the Student Text

The full-color, 48-page Student Text features six easy-to-read chapters. Students will be able to explain the freedoms and responsibilities of U.S. citizens. Specifically, students will learn about the cultural makeup of the United States; principles of democracy; rights guaranteed by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, such as due process rights; laws and important figures of the civil rights movement; voter qualifications such as citizenship, residence, and age; and more.

Teacher's Guide

The 110-page, reproducible Teacher's Guide has 64 student worksheets that reinforce each section of the Student Text. The Teacher's Guide also includes a quiz for each chapter, a final review, a final test, and complete answer keys.
