Democracy Lab in the Classroom

The Democracy Lab is a hands-on learning space for visitors of all ages to explore the work of Congress. If you cannot visit us in person, the Democracy Lab Classroom Resources packet includes everything you need to recreate three activities in your own classroom: Pass A Bill, Creating Compromise, and Cast Your Vote. This resource is designed for Middle and High School students.

Each activity includes background information for teachers, a list of required materials, directions, suggested adaptations, and student handouts.

This resource includes the How a Bill Becomes a Law chart and Creating Compromise playing board and pieces. Designed and scaled for 11”x 17” paper.
