Government |

|
| We took a peice of paper out of a box with an L, J, or E on
it for Legislative, Judicial, and Executive. I got Legislative.
The Legislative Branch makes laws and changes existing laws based
on the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. It has 2 houses,
The House of Representatives and The Senate. In our skit, I was
Madame Benjamin and I was the head of The Senate and The House
of Representatives. We added humor to it just so our audiance
wouldn't get bored. I really enjoyed making the skit with these
people because it gave everyone a chance to bond with each other. |
Reflection
During class, we learned about Democracy, Republic,
Communism, Monarchy, and Facism. In computer, we were supposed
to research government from any country in the world accept
the U.S. I chose Iceland. I found that Iceland's government
is very similar
to the U.S. and Canada's government. They have a president,
but they're only allowed a 4 year term. The people of the political
parties vote for the president. We also got to write a paragraph
about a government that we really like, our own government,
or two combined governments. The reason why we did this is
so that we could learn to write a long, detailed paragraph
about the topic we're learning.
