Civics: U.S. Government - 1 trimester
U.S. Government will focus on the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Students will examine, in detail, the roles of the legislative, executive and judicial branches. During our examination of the legislative branch, we will discuss how a bill becomes a law and the role of members of Congress. While studying the executive branch, students will have an opportunity to study a president in depth and see how he fulfilled the roles prescribed by the Constitution. Finally, while learning about the Supreme Court, students will research cases that impacted our rights guaranteed by the Bill of Rights.
