I’ll be teaching Government and Economics to ELLs for the first time this coming school year.
Yesterday, I shared some online tools I was considering using for economics.
Here are the ones I’ll considering using for Government – let me know what you think and what I’m missing:
Additional suggestions:
You are definitely missing Nearpod! Amazing customizable and interactive lessons. FREE basic accounts. Immersive reader is built in.

Voice of America has a nice section in their Learning English pages on US History. I really like their stuff!https://t.co/opSv0JyMcf@Voalearnenglish https://t.co/mR71p87tCW

Michelle Barnes Meczywor suggested this textbook, which looks good to me. These two scope and sequences also looked helpful, as did this class blog.
If you are teaching English Language Learners about American government, @jaredpeet has generously made many of the resources he created and uses public for all to use! It’s quite a gift! https://t.co/4dgr7BBXUV

A company called Certell has released a series of online Social Studies classes that are available for free to teachers and to students. The progam is called Poptential. I’m considering trying it out a little in my ELL Government class sometime this year. If I was teaching U.S. History, I might also consider using it as a supplement in that class.
