President George Washington Review Activity

Students complete an interview activity to review George Washington's presidency. They first answer 5 history based questions, then they "interview" Washington after becoming president (5 questions and answers), and then they conduct his last interview prior to his death (6 questions and answers). The last task is a bonus creative opportunity. The answers are included where appropriate and this would be great for a sub!

Sample questions include:
--Explain what the Whiskey Rebellion was and why it was a significant moment for both Washington as President and America as a country.
--Summarize the reason for, and result of, Jay’s Treaty, and explain if it was a success or not given Washington’s presidential agenda/goals.
--Explain this quote in your own words to demonstrate understanding. Then, identify and explain 3 precedents set by Washington. 
--What is the most important item on your presidential agenda?
--What do you think will be your biggest challenge in achieving your goals?
--Do you have any regrets from your time in office?
