Levels of Government

Grade: 4

*This is a Government lesson I taught to fourth grade students during my student teaching internship.

Start by reading and discussing ‘Who’s Got the Power?’ Students will need to fill in the blanks on their worksheet as we read and discuss.

Next, give each student a 'Who’s Got the Power?’ cut and glue worksheet. The students will cut out the description boxes on the bottom of the page. They will then glue the job descriptions under the correct type of government.

Adaptation: When reading and discussing the first worksheet, have correct spellings available for the below-level students. For the second worksheet, make sure to read through each job description with the below-level readers.
