I was really excited that I found this tool about United States Government. On pbs.org there is an activity telling what it is like if you were to be president for a day. I had so much fun with this activity, it made me realize that although the present has an extremely large role, they really are normal people like you and me. As a teacher, you can use this tool during your U.S. Government unit. This activity will help the students understand the role of the United States President. Also, there are so many options you can do with this activity that they can do it again and again learning new facts each time. I really feel that this activity is important because it gets your students interested about history and current events because they can each relate somehow. Also, the students can do this activity at home and show it off to their family and friends because everyone chooses different tasks so its fun for everyone! Also on this site, there is a link you can click on explaining why the government is important to everyone and why you should learn and respect it. Check it out its awesome!
