We the People

We The People: The Citizen and The Constitution State Competition is a simulated congressional hearing that provides students an opportunity to demonstrate their understanding of constitutional principles and ideas while providing teachers an excellent means of assessing student learning.

Students prepare and present four-minute statements before a panel of community representatives acting as a congressional committee. Students then answer follow-up questions posed by the committee members.
