(Grades 3-5)

Redistricting methods and gerrymandering has been a topic of debate across the US since 1812.  This inquiry lesson allows students to investigate why redistricting occurs and how it can be done in a way that effectively represents the populations within a state.  This virtual lesson uses primary source documents from the W. R. Poage Legislative Library.
