Know The USA – Card set, Activities Booklet
Card set – A 60-card set (2-1/2” x 3-1/2”, like trading cards) that summarily covers the history and the civics of the USA. A great primer or review for students of all ages, any citizen, people studying to be citizens, etc. The cards are like a combo of Cliffs© Notes, flash cards, note cards, and trading cards. There are hundreds of ways to use them.
Activities Booklet – Activity worksheets, puzzles, and quizzes that can be used alone but are designed to be used with the cards. Activity suggestions using cross-reference of Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences and Bloom’s Taxonomy of Educational Objectives.
The Know The USA card set has been on QVC, been a best seller at the Supreme Court of the United States, and was a Scholastic National Award Winner for Best in Social Studies.
These were last produced in 2001, but still serve as an ideal, excellent resource and review of USA history and civics.
I have only 13 cards sets remaining. The cards are a great tactile item which help in learning. Students (and adults) enjoy holding and shuffling them, looking at them (and not a screen), and collecting them in card sleeves.
