[quote=Anonymous]I think my daughter’s civics class is too advanced for the average 8th grader. They were studying the government shutdown and since no textbooks are that recent they used news articles. One article was from the BBC. I read the article to see how I could help her. I’m following government closely but this article from the BBC was so long and dry I wonder how much she could retain. She will be tested on the second quarter work and it’s a lot. From what I remember when I looked at her review sheet there was info on the Magna Carta and King John and the Barons and how much was used by the colonists. There was a lot about the constitution and how different areas came about, info on the Tea Party. It seemed to cover a lot of years but just bits and pieces. Does anyone have a middle schooler taking civics and if so what are they learning? [/quote]
