 * __UNIT__: //Executive Branch// **
 * __UNIT__: //Executive Branch// **


 * __AUTHOR__: //Everett Altman// **


 * __UNIT OVERVIEW__: **

__Overview __ //*In general, this unit will cover the Executive Branch as a whole along with an in depth look at each former United States President. //

__Student Audience __ //*This unit is designed to cover 9th grade American Government. //

__Timeframe __ //*16 days, 50 minutes/day //

__Rationale __ //*This unit is being taught in order to explain how the most important position in the United States government operates as well as educate the students on the most exemplary people who have occupied this position. //

__Unit Objectives __ //*The students will be able to develop a firm grasp of the presidential history of the United States as well as an understanding of how the Executive Branch operates. //

__Unit Standards __ //* Colorado Academic Standards // // Social Studies Standards //

// “Teaching social studies powerfully and authentically begins with a deep knowledge and understanding of the subject and its unique goals. Social studies programs prepare students to identify, understand, and work to solve the challenges facing our diverse nation in an increasingly interdependent world. Education for citizenship should help students acquire and learn to use the skills, knowledge, and attitudes that will prepare them to be competent and responsible citizens throughout their lives. Competent and responsible citizens are informed and thoughtful, participate in their communities, are involved politically, and exhibit moral and civic virtues.” //

// -A Vision of Powerful Teaching and Learning in the Social Studies: // // Building Social Understanding and Civic Efficacy (NCSS, 2008) //

// Preparing students for the 21st century cannot be accomplished without a strong and sustaining emphasis on the social studies. The social studies provide cornerstone skills that are the key to opening doors for a more diverse, competitive workforce and responsible citizenry. Students use critical thinking, self-assessment, reasoning, problem-solving, collaboration, research, and investigation to make connections in new and innovative ways as they progress through social studies education. These standards outline the knowledge and skills needed to help young people develop the ability to make informed and reasoned decisions for the public good as citizens of a culturally diverse, democratic society in an interdependent world. //

// Social studies is essential to understanding the complexity of the world. It provides the context and understanding of how humans interact with each other and with the environment over time. It offers the crucial knowledge needed to create a framework for understanding the systems of society. //

// Colorado's social studies standards lay out a vision of these vitally important disciplines and describe what all students should know and be able to do at each grade level through eighth grade, and through high school. The authors of this document are educators in preschool through twelfth grade, higher education professors, business and military representatives, and community members. The group developed a set of competencies starting with "the end in mind." What concepts and skills would a "prepared graduate" in the 21st century possess after completing high school? The answers to this question framed the work that led to the development of four standards in social studies for grades P-12. //

__Variations or Adaptions __ //*In many cases students who are advanced for their age or grade level come along and in which case I would be very willing to make some adjustments to my curriculum for them in order to push them closer to their potential. I would offer an advanced schedule of assignments to where they could be able to complete the assignments in an accelerated fashion in order to leave time for me to assign a more in depth assignment that would encompass some more advanced readings and material for them to learn from. //

// *I would also have an option for these particular students to meet with me and their parent(s) to discuss what they would be interested in. This would give me a chance to grasp how motivated the student is to achieve and also to gage where their parent(s) envision(s) their child/student going. I believe strongly in parental involvement with their child/student's education and therefore feel the parent(s) should be involved in the decision for accelerated learning. However, if the child/student's parent(s) is/are unable to attend a meeting, I will meet with the child/student if they are willing to do so. //

 * //Lesson #1: //**


 * __Title of lesson__: **** //Presidency// **

__Description of lesson: __ //<span style="color: #008000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">*The students will begin learning about the U.S. Presidency. For this the students will need to find online articles concerning the U.S. Presidency in correlation to the in class reading. This lesson is designed to help the students become more acquainted with the roles and procedures encompassed within the U.S. Presidency. //

__<span style="color: #000080; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">Assignment: __ //<span style="color: #008000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">*The students will be reading in class about the U.S. Presidency. For homework they will need to find a minimum of 3 online articles pertaining to the reading in class and then copy and paste the relevant portions of the articles into a word document. After this is completed, the students then need to create a bibliography for their 3 sources. This should all be stapled and turned in to the teacher. //

__<span style="color: #000080; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">Resources/materials needed: __ //<span style="color: #008000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">*Classroom textbook and internet sites (computer access) of their choice. //

__<span style="color: #000080; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">Technology reflection: __ //<span style="color: #008000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">*The use of technology will allow the students to go outside the classroom to find information on their own. More importantly, it will allow them to do this in a non-time consuming manner that would not be available without the use of this technology. //

__<span style="color: #000080; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">Evaluation: __ //<span style="color: #008000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">*My main concern for this lesson is that the students actually try to correlate to the in class reading. The important aspect I need to focus on is teaching the students how to construct a bibliography. //

When they visit the site they will find every previous U.S. President listed. After they have decided which president they would like to study, they need to sign up for the president by emailing me at ealtman09@yahoo.com with their desired president. I will then reply to the email notifying them whether or not their selection was still available. Presidents will be selected on a first come first served basis and there is a limit to one student per president. After they have received notification stating their choice is valid, they then need to create a minimum of 10 online flashcards through Quizlet.com.
