TWICE Regular Members: We the Kids
--------------------------------------------------------------------
TWICE offers this project for the 4th (or 5th) grade social studies curriculum, focusing on the Constitution, particularly the preamble. Students will study the six phrases of the preamble and present non-linguistic representations (i.e. drawings or skits) to each other to explain the parts of the preamble.

We the Kids is a Matching Event so you will need to select multiple times/dates for when your class can participate.

We the Kids is open to TWICE Regular Members (paid membership) ONLY.

TWICE ASK Programs, Second Semester

TWICE partners with various ISDs around Michigan to bring ASK Author videoconferences. ASK (“Authors Specialist and Knowledge”) is an organized process that provides students with the opportunity to interview an author or a subject specialist in the topic they are reading about in a novel. The program uses excellent literature, journal writing and interviewing to promote reading for understanding.

ASK programs are Multipoint Events.

TWICE ASK programs are $40 for regular members and $80 for non members.
