In Power Play, students coach a team of players to develop arguments that, if persuasive, will pull power statues toward a side: state or federal government.

Students:

• Distinguish between arguments that states or the federal government should have more power
• For specific government powers, identify arguments about where each power should lie (with the states or the federal government)
• Dismiss irrelevant arguments
