Building Life-Long Readers One Book at a Time

Silent Sustained Reading (SSR) is a staple of many classrooms.

The goal of SSR is simple: For 30 minutes twice a week the entire school population is reading silently—and enjoying it.

Why Local Elections Matter

In this lesson, students explore the ways that decisions by local government affect their lives. They’ll review research and data about a few recent local elections to push back against the myth that a single vote doesn’t count. They’ll learn how laws in their state encourage or suppress voter engagement. And in an extension activity, eligible students learn how to register to vote.
