Students love to watch BrainPOP so I made sure to look on their for any resources. There are also other activities on the website to do as well that are about the branches of government. ]]> 2021-09-09 01:40:33 UTC https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726541264 am17123 https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726551257 This is a great book to use for a read aloud with your students for them to learn more about the branches of government.

The teacher could even use this picture and have the students distinguish which branch is at what building.]]> 2021-09-09 01:51:33 UTC https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726571073 am17123 https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726578880 The anchor chart above is a great idea to use in a classroom. Students get to see how the 3 branches are distinguished and what is different about them. It may also help the students better understand if they picture the different branches of government as different branches on a tree like it is depicted above.]]> 2021-09-09 01:54:31 UTC https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726578880 am17123 https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726588226 The worksheet above is a good worksheet to use with students because it challenges them to think about what roles each branch has and also who make up each branch. They also have to put which building goes with each branch. I feel that this worksheet asks about the main information that the students will learn about the branches of government. ]]> 2021-09-09 01:58:14 UTC https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726588226 am17123 https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726613162 The activity in the picture would be a fun activity for students to do to create and display what they learned about the three branches of government.]]> 2021-09-09 02:07:18 UTC https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726613162 am17123 https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726620905 This video does a great job at explaining the concept of checks and balances within the three branches of government. The concept of checks and balances can be confusing to students at first which is why I feel that this video will help them better understand the concept.]]> 2021-09-09 02:10:06 UTC https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726620905 am17123 https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726627881 This graph is a great way to show students how the branches of government checks on each other and balances their power. The graph is good to use because it is easy to understand and easy to follow.]]> 2021-09-09 02:12:34 UTC https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726627881 am17123 https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726633608 This game is a fun way for students to get excited about learning more about the branches of government and it helps the learn and engage with the different vocabulary. ]]> 2021-09-09 02:14:43 UTC https://padlet.com/am17123/hbrtn73d8chfn4js/wish/1726633608
