Domino Vocabulary

Students match key vocabulary terms-such as confederation, ratify, sovereignty, militia, delegate, treaty, levy, and amendment-to their correct definitions. The matching activity forms a “domino chain,” encouraging students to connect each definition with the correct government term. This reinforces essential vocabulary used when discussing early American government and the Articles of Confederation. It supports students in learning precise terminology necessary for understanding historical documents and government structures.
