This workbook for high school students explores the hot button topics of the 2024 Presidential election in America. Students read an essay about each topic, inserting the missing vocabulary words (using context clues).

I provide three views: a conservative view, a progressive view, and a unity view on elements that both sides agree on. I am intentionally non-partisan, choosing to be descriptive and respectful of each viewpoint to these controversial issues.

This material will help your students understand “the other side” and not demonize people who view things differently. Here are the 28 topics: Jobs and Unemployment in AmericaThe Economy and Inflation in AmericaIncome Tax and Government Spending in AmericaImmigration and the Border in AmericaCrime and Public Safety in AmericaEducation and Childcare in AmericaHigher Education and Student Loan Debt in AmericaHealth Care and Hospital Debt in AmericaHousing and Homelessness in AmericaEnergy and the Climate in AmericaDiversity and Inclusion in AmericaElection Integrity And Interference in AmericaSpending and the National Debt in AmericaThe Rich and the Poor in AmericaGuns and Violence in AmericaArtificial Intelligence and Jobs in AmericaRace and Ethnicity in AmericaRespect and Tolerance in AmericaFree Speech and Hate Speech in AmericaFacts and Lies in AmericaForeign and Domestic Financial Investment in AmericaWar and Peace in AmericaLibraries and Book Banning in AmericaDemocracy, Autocracy, or Theocracy in AmericaObesity and the Food Industry in AmericaBody Autonomy and Choice in AmericaReligious Freedom and the Constitution in AmericaMarriage and Family Structures in AmericaFinding common ground is the unifying element of every lesson in this workbook.
