Methods for preparing and conducting a simulation game that teaches the practical aspects of lobbying to high school students are provided. A prerequisite to the game is that students have learned the theoretical concepts of lobbying. "Lobbying" can be played in three class sessions if materials are distributed and roles assigned before the first session. Roles include 12 members of Congress, their aides, 10 lobbyists, a presidential liaison, the House chaplain, and the Speaker of the House. Lobbyists are informed of their special interests and of how much money they have at their disposal. Legislators are provided with their personal and constituency backgrounds and special interests. The game centers around a list of bills to be introduced and the influence of lobbyists in directing the order of introduction. Reproducible materials and forms are included. (KC)
