Once America was free from Great Britain, it needed to decide how to run the new country. The nation's founders split the government into three branches. This ensured that no one person would have too much power. This system keeps us free!

The accompanying lesson plan provides 5 days of standards-based activities focused on reading, writing and social studies with a primary source activity and Spanish-translated student activity sheets, a multiple-choice quiz and a document-based assessment.
