WELCOME! On behalf of Splash! Publications, we would like to welcome you to The Continental Congress, one of nine lessons in our Early American Government Unit.

No comprehension questions to write, activities to create, or vocabulary words to de ne. Simply make copies of the lesson for your students and start teaching.

They will also be tested on the vocabulary words at the end of the lesson. Students will be responsible for lling out and studying their vocabulary cards. You may want to have students bring in a small box for storing their vocabulary cards. We don’t have to tell you that incorporating these words into your Reading and Spelling programs will save time and make the words more meaningful for students.
