TOPIC 1.1 · Navigation and delivery puzzle · CLASSROOM TESTING
Republic Route
Navigate changing road closures and carry petitions to the institutions that can act on them.
Navigate a fictional constitutional town represented by a period-inspired courtyard. The institutions are teaching stations, not a reconstruction of Philadelphia or a claim that the 1787 Constitution existed in 1776.
Read, play, explain, then replay. Short games are planned for about 20 minutes including reflection; actual classroom timing is untested. No speed requirement.
Who holds authority?
Carry one sealed petition at a time. Select a petition, navigate with arrow keys/WASD or tap a reachable square, and deliver at the matching institution. Road closures change each shift. Minimize steps on replay; there is no time penalty.
Read the document
U.S. Constitution, Preamble: “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union”. This opening grounds constitutional authority in the people. Constitutional institutions mediate how that authority is exercised.
Historical excerpt and authored context, not an official AP question.
