To the teacher... We encourage you to present these lessons during Florida City Government Week which occurs in October of each year. However, we hope that you will participate at any point during the year, as your students will benefit from learning this information whenever they receive it.

The My City booklet contains one week of lessons and activities about city government. While the lessons were designed to build on one another, they can be used selectively. Activity sheets to accompany the lessons are included.

If you want to invite a city official to your classroom as suggested in Lesson 5, you will need to make those arrangements in advance. Contact your city hall for contact information.

If you have any questions or comments on the lessons before, during or after you use them, or if you would like to receive a print version of the booklet, please contact the Public Affairs Department. We hope these lessons are a positive experience for you and your students as they learn about city government and their role as citizens.

 My City: I'm Part of It, I'm Proud of It!
