End of Course Testing
The Missouri Bar Citizenship Education Program recognizes that preparing students to take the American Government end-of-course test is not an easy task for teachers. These end-of-course materials were developed to provide a practical guide to the American Government end-of-course test. Although the materials were developed to coordinate with the We the People and the Constitution curriculum, teachers can readily adapt these materials to any government text.
The We the People Level II text is generally considered for use in Grades 7-9 and Level III in Grades 10-12.(For information about purchasing these books, go to www.civiced.org or contact Tony Simones, Director of Citizenship Education for The Missouri Bar at tsimones@mobar.org.
