to School Program 
Attention
all 3-12 grade teachers...
The
New Jersey State Legislature Office of Legislative
Services and the New Jersey Center for Civics and
Law-Related Education are joining to support
America’s
Legislators
Back-to-School Program
October |
New Jersey legislators will make special efforts to
visit with school children, providing personal insights
into the value of public service and the lawmaking
process. They can address questions such as:
• What
does it mean to be a legislator?
• What
is a typical day like?
• How did
he/she get involved in public service and why?
• What
issues are he/she most concerned about and what action
is being taken?
• What
efforts are he/she most proud of?
• What
advice does he/she give to future legislators?
Another presentation option could be a legislator-assisted
mock debate and vote. This format will illustrate
the concepts of debate, negotiation and compromise.
To schedule a visit,
contact your local state representatives. To “Find
Your Legislator” go to www.njleg.state.nj.us/members/legsearch.asp
