Teaching and Processing Current Events

ProgramLesson Plan
Written By A More Perfect Union

Create and teach lessons to help young people understand the implications of current events on Jewish thought and democratic values.

Facing History & Ourselves created a mini-lesson entitled, "Processing US Presidential Election Results." The lesson contains guidance for teachers on how to discuss upcoming elections with students, as well as a collection of activities to help students process their emotional responses to an election, find accurate information, and consider the impact of an election once the result are known.
