Content Summary:
Students
will be learning about the executive branch, which carries out laws, and more
specifically, the role of the president. He is the head of the executive
branch, and is the manager/director of the entire federal government. He is the
Commander-in-Chief of the military, and also works with other countries in
trading and keeping peace (treaties). The people elect him, and once he is made president,
he gets to live in the White House with his family. He signs laws that are
written by Congress, but only if he thinks they will help the country. If he
disagrees with a law, he can use his veto
power. He also makes the budget for the country each year.
