Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 5.10 United States Symbols, Holidays, and Civic Participation skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

A student writes an essay: “Being a good citizen is not just celebrating symbols and holidays. It is also taking action when something needs improvement.”

Which evidence best supports the essay’s claim?

AA student watches a parade and forgets why it happens

BA student memorizes the flag’s colors but never helps anyone

CA student collects souvenirs from a museum

DA student learns about a holiday, then organizes a food drive for families in need

Solution & Explanation:Organizing a food drive shows action to improve the community, connecting learning about holidays to civic participation. The other choices show little or no civic action.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

A student says, “If a symbol stands for freedom, then everyone should be free to participate in civic life.”

Which classroom example best matches that reasoning?

AOnly certain students may join the discussion

BStudents silence others to keep things quiet

CStudents create rules so everyone can speak politely, even if they disagree

DStudents decide that opinions are not allowed

Solution & Explanation:Freedom and participation mean creating fair rules so everyone can speak respectfully. Excluding or silencing others goes against that idea.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A community is divided about a new law. Some citizens want to change it.

Which set of actions is the most responsible and likely to work in a democracy?

AThreaten leaders and break the law to get attention

BLearn what the law says, talk with others, contact representatives, and vote in the next election

CSpread false stories to make people angry

DRefuse to listen to anyone who disagrees

Solution & Explanation:Responsible change involves being informed, discussing, contacting leaders, and voting. Threats, lies, and refusing to listen harm democratic problem-solving.
