Classroom Resources
This page supplements the informational
resources found on the Census
home page. It provides teaching
materials that have been created to help adults (or children) understand
the importance of the Census, how to participate in it, and the questions it
raises about data accuracy and security. NELRC is developing additional lessons
and sharing census-focused texts from the “Stand Up and Be Counted” issue
of The Change Agent.

◼ The Change Agent Census Packet (PDF) of
(mostly) student writings about the census, with accompanying teaching
activities.

◼ ESOL Activities

developed by the Campbell Adult and Community Education program. Supplement any
of these activities with practice filling out a sample paper census form.
