Branches of Government and Citizenship for Special Education

Citizenship and Branches of Government includes over 150 pages and 16 google slides of material for students with autism and other special learning needs.

This unit covers the 3 Branches of Government:

• Duties of each branch of government
• Who makes up each branch of government
• Who is the current president
• Who is the current vice-president
• Being a Good Citizen and citizenship

These materials are designed to allow students with multiple levels of learning to access and engage in social studies lessons on the 3 branches of government.

There are many opportunities for students with disabilities to engage in repeated information on the duties and powers of the 3 branches of government. This repetition encourages a true understanding of how our government is structured.

Finally, many of the activities and assessments include more than one version, suggestions for differentiation, and options for presentation which is critical for the success of our students with autism.

➡️ Also included is a social story on what it means to be a good citizen.

This unit has digital versions of the printable activities. There are 16 google slides and movie versions of all the books included in this unit.

I hope you find these activities as helpful and engaging for your students as I did for mine. I love teaching students with severe challenges, and I find creating ways to make content relevant and rigorous one of the most fulfilling and rewarding journeys I could imagine.
