Branches of Power
Do you like running things? Do something no one else can, and run all three branches of the U.S. Government. But what will the public think?
-
Each branch plays a specific role in turning an idea into a law. In Branches of Power, your students will practice their decision-making skills as they take on the roles and responsibilities of the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial Branches and turn as many bills into laws as possible. Through the game, players will introduce a presidential agenda, communicate with the public, write legislation, sign or veto bills, and even judge passed laws.
In Branches of Power your students will:
Create a presidential agenda and learn about the executive branch powers
Introduce bills and pass laws out of Congress
Apply judicial review to passed laws
