Momling Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 My partner is going to be taking the naturalization test to become a US citizen at the end of this month and I thought it's a good opportunity to do some work as a family. My partner knows very few of the answers and the kids have never studied US history and there are some basic questions about the constitution and such that they really ought to know. The test consists of 100 questions that really only just need to be memorized, but I think it'd be nice to actually engage everyone. What family TV programs or activities can you think of that might be useful? We'll do this work in the evening so "fun" is nice. Tonight I thought we could watch some schoolhouse rock videos "We the people", "I'm just a bill", "Three ring circus", "electoral college" "No more kings" Can you think of an amusing documentary about the constitution? Or about US Government? or US History? I figured we could also do quizzes as a family game-show style. Other ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lily_Grace Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 You might enjoy the History Channel's the History of Us miniseries. It goes from the beginning (early 1600s) on through - I want to say a total of about 4 hours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
