Teacher Notes
Divide your classroom into three distinctive areas and use
signage to indicate the Executive, Legislative and Judicial
branches. In each section have individual signs indicating the
different parts of each branch. Assign students to each branch and
position. Have each student after doing some research explain their
function.
