Abstract	In this lesson plan, students are assigned a member of the California Assembly to research and a political faction to represent. Students examine representative bills voted on by the California Assembly to determine if their member's voting record coincides with the views of their political faction. Ultimately, students must decide whether, and how, to target their Assembly member as friend or foe. Students are provided with background information, detailed instructions, and online resources. The teacher's notes describe the unit's purpose, explain the application of history/social science standards, suggest teaching strategies, and provide sample political faction descriptions, a representation of the political spectrum, a voting record worksheet, and an activity questionnaire.
