As the nation prepares to mark its 250th anniversary, the Center for Civic Education and the National Constitution Center are partnering to help educators make the moment meaningful in classrooms across the country. On July 9, the two organizations will officially launch Teaching250: Civics Renewal for America’s 250th and Beyond, a webinar introducing new inquiry-based lessons designed to help students explore the nation’s founding principles, constitutional democracy, and civic character. Participants will hear from the educators behind the lessons, learn how the inquiries can be used in the classroom, and see how these resources can support instruction leading up to America250 and beyond.
The webinar reflects the Center’s ongoing commitment to equipping teachers with high-quality, inquiry-driven resources that bring civic learning to life. Developed as part of a national curriculum initiative, Teaching250 places educators at the center of civic renewal by providing classroom-ready lessons that invite students to engage primary sources, wrestle with enduring constitutional questions, and connect the nation’s founding ideals to the responsibilities of citizenship today. In partnership with the National Constitution Center, this launch is an important step in helping the next generation understand not only the history we commemorate, but the democratic responsibilities they are called to carry forward.
