  • Enhance your Sociology class with this race music project! This is a highly engaging project for any sociology course. Students select a music video and song from the internet that has to do with race and our society. They analyze the message of the song and make connections to sociology. The next day they present their songs and analyze it as a sociologist would. A rubric is included to make grading easier. This is one of my student's favorite lessons!

  • Teaching about the election is always an important topic. For younger students, they may host their own election nominating a class president while learning in an age-appropriate way who is running to be the next United States President.

One vital topic to include during a presidential unit involves the electoral college. #electoralcollege #hsgovernment #government
