This is the final lesson in a 3-lesson unit. In this integrated civics lesson, students will learn about conditional logic through an unplugged activity and complete the Scratch code for a game that uses conditional statements to determine what form of government the user is thinking of.

Type: Lesson Plan

Students will research basic demographic information about historical figures who were key to the passage of the 15^th and 19^th Amendments.  Students will practice their conditional thinking skills by completing two thinking maps designed to reinforce the application of conditional statements. This is lesson 2 of a 3-lesson unit.
