GHS Business Law

1) You will need some headphones for this activity!! Go to the link below and listen to this wonderful song by School House Rock. Do you remember this growing up at all? I do!! The part I want you to listen to and key in on is the part about the preamble- It starts off- "We the people..in order to form a more perfect union". That is the preamble to the Constitution. You will be responsible for memorizing the preamble. Maybe this song will help! You probably want to print you off a copy. You will be tested next week on it.

2) In Chapter 3, Section 3 your textbook discusses The Three Branches of Government and Balance of Powers. Using Microsoft Word or Power Point, you should create a graphic organizer (chart) organizing and detailing information and responsibilities for all three branches of government. You can use your textbook and various web sites to help you. This can be one of your sources but cannot be your only source:
