Draw a line across the paper and mark the years when each president served. Add a small picture or symbol that represents something special about each president. For example, you could draw a globe for Franklin Roosevelt to represent his leadership during World War II. This activity will help you visualize the order of the presidents and remember key facts about their time in office.

  2. Presidential Match-Up Game: Write the names of the presidents on separate pieces of paper and mix them up in a bowl. On another set of papers, write a fun fact or achievement about each president. Mix these up in another bowl. Take turns drawing one paper from each bowl and try to match the president with the correct fact. This game will help you learn interesting details about each leader and improve your memory skills.

  3. Presidential Interview Role-Play: Pair up with a friend or family member and choose a president to learn more about. One person can pretend to be the president, and the other can be a reporter. The reporter asks questions like, “What was your biggest challenge as president?” or “What is one thing you are proud of achieving?” The “president” can answer based on what you’ve learned. This activity encourages you to think about the presidents’ experiences and how they might have felt during their time in office.
