PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Following a three-day lesson on the Declaration of Independence, students will create their own personal declarations of independence from things they would prefer “removed from their lives.” From annoyances like mosquitoes to afflictions like homework, from the silly (like bad smells) to the serious (like cancer), students will draft declarations through which they will demonstrate their understanding of the four parts of the real Declaration of Independence. |
