“Before I became acquainted
with CongressLink, I did not comprehend
the amount of material that one can receive on
the Internet . . . In addition to the fact that
students benefit greatly from CongressLink, the
website is also a learning placefor teachers.”
Jennifer Mantlo, teacher at Warren East High School in Bowling Green, Kentucky
“I teach senior American Government at the high school level,and this is by far the best site I have found for Congress lesson plans. My students
have enjoyed each of the activities I have
used from the Dirksen Center.”
