United States Citizenship

This complete, easy-to-use program helps middle and high school students understand the basics of American government.

Designed for middle and high school students who need help learning the basic concepts taught in American Government classes. The 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. These standards-based programs are appropriate for on-level students, students with learning differences, and students and adults reading below grade level.

The full-color, 48-page Student Text features six easy-to-read chapters covering the freedoms and responsibilities of U.S. citizens; the ways to become a U.S. citizen; the cultural makeup of the United States; principles of democracy; rights guaranteed by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights; laws and important figures of the civil rights movement; voter qualifications such as citizenship, residence, and age; and more. Includes charts, photos, and a glossary.

The 110-page, reproducible Teacher’s Resource has 64 student worksheets that reinforce each section of the Student Text.
