Included are text stations and a graphic organizer on four key topics: Man of the People, Jackson's Treatment of Native People (Trail of Tears), the Nullification Crisis, and the Bank War. An essential vocabulary page is also included to put at each station to hit on a variety of content-specific vocabulary terms.

In the third section, students learn about the Tariff of Abominations, the threat of nullification, John Calhoun, secession, and the Force Bill.
