We the People: The Citizen & The Constitution We the People: The Citizen & The Constitution

WTPjr2018The primary goal of "We the People: The Citizen and the Constitution" is to promote civic competence and responsibility among the nation's elementary and secondary students. What makes this program so successful is the design of its instructional program, including its innovative culminating activity. We The People enables student participation and ownership of individual learning through preparation for a mock hearing centered around constitutional principles and philosophy. In addition, students learn critical writing, participating in a group, public speaking, and responding respectfully to controversial topics.
