As part of their study of the origins of American government, groups of senior government students compete to see who can correctly order the influences on American government the quickest.
The students used their knowledge gained from reading, discussions and note taking to order and explain items such as Ancient Rome, the Magna Carta and John Locke. Teams then had to explain the principle of government we borrowed from each item in the timeline.
After this kinesthetic practice round, students had to individually complete an interactive timeline to show the knowledge they gained.
