We are less than a month away from election day and that means we’re all being flooded with political ads. This week we’re encouraging students to think critically about the ads they’re seeing with this fun Spot the Troll game and this lesson on evaluating the truth on social media

And check out our Be Voter Ready toolkit to help your colleagues and voting-age students learn about casting their votes in the 2020 election! You’re welcome to share the toolkit at go.NAF.org/vote with anyone else you think would benefit!
