3 Types of Government Graphic Organizer

It is important that we understand the 3 types of government we have in America (Federal, State, and Local). To ensure that you all understand the 3 types and the branches and positions of each, we are going to complete a graphic organizer. Use what you have learned about the different types to create an analogy of our different governments. Make sure that you have each of these things represented, citizens, constitution, federal, state and local branches, and positions in each branch.
