the "tree" branches of government
By srw

Clip to ScrapBook   
I divided my class into 3 gropus and assigned each group a branch of government. They were to go through the text and pull out all the important information for their branch. (They had to have at least 5 key facts and had to answer questions I gave them.) Then they wrote all of their information on a large sheet (butcher paper size) of green paper. Next they cut it to look like part of a tree. Finally, after "teaching/sharing" their information with the rest of the class, they help create the "tree" branches of government by adding their branch to the large tree trunk.
